Any bike shop that uses J&B Importers can order you one. J&B is the main rival to QBP, is cheaper, and tends to be the main distro for lower-end, less carbon-oriented bike shops. Call any shop and ask. I bet bikeworks uses J&B more than QBP.

just got one
Picked it up at Bicycle Station. They closed at 7PM but stayed until 8:30 putting it together for me (I got the first 56 available that day), upgraded the seat, wheels, and added a chain on the saddle for free. Even gave me another discount, $400 in hand. Incredibly nice guys, and I will be buying all of my gear from them from now on as I normally hate going to the local LBS. Answered all of my questions without the usual NYC superiority complex of fixie idiots.
Tight geometry, steel is a little harsh (but then again I've been riding a Synapse Carbon for the last year, the most comfortable ride ever) but the thing can move. I was very impressed with the performance of such a cheap bike, and it seems invincible. Not too heavy for a chromo frame, I haven't weighed it but it feels lighter than the pista.

I took my roommate to buy one at Bike Station and it was $400. He put on straight bars and the appropriate brake levers, put on an adjustable stem (she is riding it with the freewheel), added toe clips, and a fender. $400 even. I assume most of you know that bike shops in this city don't charge tax on purchases or labor if you pay in cash.
