If it was the Pacific Outdoor Peak Oyl Elite for $29.98, I'm sure they are sold out. That's a steal! I only found a few other places online selling them for around $120.
I like the idea of them, although I'm not a fan of mummy shaped pads. But the side tubes might make it make it worth trying out.

Personally I'll stick with my heavy weight 72x25x2 self-inflating Alps, although I was temped by the ones on sale.
BTW they are sold out now, but you can still find them on the site.

Try Eastern Mtn Sports. They make an "air channel" pad on sale for $49 now. I've got one and like it.

Glad my $.02 was worth something. Especially in this economy ; )
