There has been much talk (from what I have read) as to when this thing is coming out or if it is even real. Well, Radio Shack has a link to purchase on their site (although it is listed as out of stock).

Follow the entire conversation.
With trunked radio systems, government entities such as police or fire departments use one of many possible frequencies with each individual transmission. That makes it virtually impossible to follow an enitre converation using an ordinary scanner. This scanner, on the other hand, features triple-trunking technology that automatically hops along with the different frequencies as they change. So, if your city or town us using a compatible Motorola, GE/Ericcson (EDACS) or LTR analog trunked system, you won't miss a thing.
