I assume I want a "2.0 Model B 512Mb"? I've found a seller on eBay with
this and they include a case for $57.
If you want to keep it super cheap, try to find a Linux user upgrading to
the 512MB version. 256MB is a vast amount of RAM for Risc OS, whereas it is
not enough for a graphical Linux desktop. You really don't need half a gig
for Risc OS, unless of course you want to run Linux as well.
