Ilford is putting together their annual special order - and this year they've agreed to add 2 1/4x 3 1/4 FP4+ to the order. I don't know a price yet - deadline is June 15th. This size was not initially offered, but several of us whined to The View Camera Store and Ilford agreed to include it.

I know the The View Camera Store is participating in the order, as is bigcameraworkshops.com in Canada. I believe that Freestyle and Badger are also participating.

Ilford requires a total of 28 boxes to be sold to cut the film - I know three of us who want to order already, so we should make the minimum with no trouble.

(Yes, Les said I could post this)

I'm one of the three that Juan mentions, and I figure if the price is the same as The View Camera Store's price on HP5+ in 2x3" (about $25), I'm in for ten boxes. If it's closer to the B&H price for HP5+ in 2x3" (about $10--astonishing isn't it?), then I'm in for twenty boxes, so 28 boxes should be no problem at all.

Just an update here that the price at The View Camera Store is around $25 per 25-sheet box. I think Juan has ordered ten, and I've ordered ten, and we know a few others who will be ordering, so it looks like this is definitely happening.
