AMD Phenom II X3 720 Black Edition http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...E16819103652"]
They have been available in Europe for a while. I also believe Provantage had a batch and is anticipating more in the next week. Or you could purchase a Phenom II X2 550 C3 revision. The only difference is the multiplier and a 100MHz difference.
My 550 BE at newegg was 90.99 and free shipping(still is). But it didn;t unlock.
I should have gotten the 720 BE for $105 !
Now available at Newegg.

Although, the listing doesn't say it's black edition while the picture shows it is. I don't think there's a non-BE version anyway.
Yup I see it. Its not BE, but according to Anandtech's review there IS a BE version.
Is this the BE?
If the box is black it's a BE, if not go bitch and whine at Newegg and they'll refund you.
Got the Phenom II 550 BE along with the board in my sig from Tigerdirect for $170 -15% Bing cashback. I unlocked both cores. Its been a week now, tested with prime 95 and stable. Required no vcore change.
