Saw this link on facebook. Looks like WSS has them. $129.99. Pretty neat little unit from the looks of it.

And $149 for the permanent mount, including high speed permanent mount transducer w/out battery. Looks like $189 all in w/battery portable case and suction cup mount high speed transducer.

Looks like Sportsman's Guide has all 3 listed.

Important: The T-POD is not intended for ice fishing. The wide cone and overall transducer design is for the open water. It will function floating in an ice hole, but you may experience excessive noise and difficulty seeing your bait. Consider a Vexilar Flasher for ice fishing.

I have used this device, and it drops connection more than expected... Also we were in about 8 fow and it was saying there was fish swimming by but we didn't see anything... It did pick up the few fish we saw and is quite a cool toy!
