I heard about these things being passed out to the Canadian press during the 2010 Vancouver Games. Has anyone found one yet? It's not for me, it's for a "friend." Really, it is. thanks, erno.

I just did a spellcheck...coffe is sometimes spelled correctly as coffEE.
There was a Canadian site selling them a while back but they're as rare as hens teeth. I'd love one too!
In Canada, Henry's, Vistek, and The Camera Store all had very limited quantities available, and sold out almost immediately. Other Canadian stores may have had stock too. I've heard people just started getting their shipping notifications in the last few days, so wait a week, and I'm sure you'll find a few on EBay. Judging by demand, I hope your friend has a very deep wallet.
The 24-105 f/4 L IS isn't so bad, but you don't get a lens cap for it. It comes up on ebay occasionally.

By the way, I just found this:

I cannot attest to the reputation of the dealer/website, but I found it posted in POTN.

Someone should introduce a Thermos based on a 70-200 f/2.8.

I have found them listed on Kijiji
