Anyone know where Sharkports are sold B&M?

Just curious, I've seen them online, but wanted to know if anyone knows where they are in stores.

If I can recall, I believe these game enhancer devices are now called "X-ports." I had a friend who was looking for a sharkport last summer for his PS2 and ended up buying an X-port, instead.

You can find these at places like Best Buy, and I'm sure EBGames & Gamestop.

They no longer make the X-port. Now it's the Max Drive. Your PS2 will not have to be connected to your computer like it would have with the X-Port.

Max Drive is the fast, easy and secure way to transfer files between your PS2 and any PC.

• Low on memory card space? Max Drive can store the data from TWO standard PS2 Memory Cards - the perfect backup solution. You can even use Max Drive to move game saves from your PlayStation 2 memory card onto any PC's hard drive. Just imagine all that extra storage space at your fingertips!

• Download the latest game saves using your PC's internet connection then use Max Drive to transfer them to your PS2® Memory Card.

• Visit www.codejunkies.com for the latest expertly created cool game saves for your favorite games - choose from hidden levels, secret characters and other cool stuff.

• Upload your own game saves or Eye Toy files to the internet via any enabled PC - or even email them to your friends.

I have a Sharkport, but the Max Drive seems like it's less of a pain. I may check that out (if I decide to buy the PS2 version of NCAA).

I believe they have the Max Drive for X-box too.

So the Max Drive will work with NCAA to download rosters. That's really what I'm looking for, to hook it up and download it from ps2rosters.com.
