I don't see any shortage of them at REI. They've got 15 one person tents listed...9 if you don't include bivys. The REI Passage 1 is a great bargain right now if you are an REI member at 30% off the $119 price. A little tight and a little portly but cheap. On the other end of the scale is the Big Agnes Fly Creek ($300) that weighs a feathery 2 lbs (packed weight) and has a couple of square feet more space. The BA Lynx Pass is in between the two in weight and cost but the same size as the Fly Creek.
