Just got one delivered to California from the folks at Retto in Spain for under $300, which is much cheaper than any US distributor I've seen. I had to wait a couple weeks to get the black and white one, but they seem to be able to get them.
I took it to a time trial on Saturday for the first real ride and loved it.

I've seen this online at US distributors recently (ex Trisports) anyone use it or test in a wind tunnell?

Haven't had a chance to wind-tunnel/test it yet, but the fit and finish on it is great. The Rapid Tri should be easier to find, however, I had to pull a few strings to get the non-tri version.

I got mine of catlike's website. They got it to me on Friday and I used it this weekend. I loved it, the covers are out a ways from your ears so you won't crack them like other versions. I thought it was very easy to get on in transition.
I got the non Tri version. I rarely do anything over Olympic so don't really see a need for the vented one. I always had the vent covered in the previous catlike version.
I'm not sure if the photo will show right I'm posting from my phone.

I've seen several on eBay in all colors. One of the coolest-looking lids out there. Doesn't have much of a tail though so....

Really happy it doesn't have a tail. That said watch out with eBay right now if you're in the us make sure it's a CSPC one.

Just for the record, the Catlike Rapid is CPSC compliant.

I know the US model is, but a lot of companies have two models US and Non-us. I don't know if this is the case for this one, but just wanted to give the poster a heads up.
The only ones I see listed on ebay are pretty much full price. I'll just order from trisports instead. :)
