I have just received an e-mail from Videoguys stating that this product will be available from mid October, price 229 dollars.

Does anybody know when it will be available in the U.K ?

Span @ http://www.span.com/product_info.php?products_id=27713 , says coming soon

However , another quote says

The drive will not be available in Europe since Pioneer Europe has withdrawn from the PC Components distribution business since the end of July 2009 for strategic reasons. ...

Play.com have the previous model in stock still @ http://www.play.com/PC/PCs/4-/9564910/Pioneer-BDR-203BK-BLU-RAY-BD-R-RE-DVDR-RW-RAM-SATA-WRITER-inc-Software-BLACK/Product.html

This thread told us Pioneer were stopping this part of their business. I wonder what the position is.
