I have it and have PC Pursuit.  I'd be willing to send it to anyone who 
wants to set up a (temporary) uucp link, can receive calls (at 1200 baud), 
and is in a PC Pursuit'able city.

For those not knowing if they are in a PC Pursuit'able city, the current
list is the following:

Atlanta, GA; Boston, MA; Chicago, IL; Cleveland, OH; Dallas, TX; Denver, CO
Detroit, MI; Glendale, CA; Hartford, CT; Houston, TX; Kansas City, MO
Los Angeles, CA; Miami, FL; Milwaukee, WI; Minneapolis, MN; Newark, NJ
New York, NY; Philadelphia, PA; Phoenix, AZ; Palo Alto, CA; Portland, OR
Research Triangle Park, NC; Riverside, CA; Salt Lake City, UT; Santa Ana, CA
Sacramento, CA; San Diego, CA; St. Louis, MO; San Francisco, CA; San Jose, CA
Seattle, WA; Tampa, FL; Washington, DC

Some of these are new cities, it might be awhile before service is 
established.

Send me login info, and I'll send it out your way.
