Peter,
Not sure if they have it but you might try VideoReplay on Ohio Street OR DVW warehouse (used to be a branch of Roscor in Mt. Prospect-might still be)

Chichago is a big city but very weak in video rental and purchase establishments.

Weak? Fletcher is awesome, but they are very slow to get new equipment. Fortunately they do have two Sony Z1s if I need them in a pinch. Thanks for the info tho.

Weak meaning there are very few options here. You'd think in a city the size of Chicago there'd be more than a couple of places.
Oh well, what can we do-2nd city (except in baseball-world champs you know :-0)

Peter,

I've heard that Roscor Rental in Mount Prospect has two in their posession. I assume they are ready to rent.

Yay! Roscor does have 2 and I'm putting them on hold already. :) They haven't even gotten them out of the box yet.

These babies are gonna make me cry.

peter,

I'm sure that they will be showing up in greater quantity after the first. I know I'll have mine by then.

Worst case I will put an ad on Craig's List asking for an XL H1 owner in Chicago to be an op for the two nights and I'll pay them.
