haha ahhhh.... it's not really made anymore dude. They stopped about 2-3 years ago unfortunately (sx70 is THE most gorgeous film - so lovely). Polaroid itself has pretty much given that up, though an independently owned group called "the impossible project" bought all their old instant film factories and machines and is currently designing and making new instant film for polaroid cameras. Their site is:

At some point they may bring back sx70 style film, however I doubt it'll be exactly the same as the original was discontinued due to chemicals they used to make the emulsion.

Yeah I saw that site the other day and it looks pretty good. I was just wondering if anyone knew of any places that may still have some left. Thanks man!

you may be able to find some on ebay... maybe.
600 size polaroid film fits if you shave off the tabs.
