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.

Will any of them work for free? :) Usually I seek volunteers from Columbia.

Yeah those guys are good.

So Roscor has two and I'm going to rent them.

Any idea of a third?
