...not sure if there have been any related posts already, but I grabbed this Kodachrome sales and processing update off Dwayne's home page. Welcome news in the midst of the 090909 madness:

Kodachrome — The End of an Era

 

Kodachrome Film status (as of September 1, 2009): We currently have the Professional (PKR) Kodachrome 64 36-exposure film in stock. The price per roll is $15.95 plus our standard shipping rates. Please call 800-522-3940 or fax your order to 620-421-3174. We have a limited supply so it won't last long.

 

On June 22, 2009, Kodak announced the final manufacturing run of Kodachrome 64, the last remaining Kodachrome film. Dwayne’s Photo plans to continue processing Kodachrome films through the end of December 2010. As long as supplies last, Dwayne's will continue to offer Kodachrome film for sale.

 

This is a sad occasion for us, as we’re sure it is for many of you. While we understand the business realities driving Kodak’s decision, we are still sorry to see the film go. Kodachrome was truly an icon of the 20th century and has certainly been a very important part of Dwayne’s business for many years. Once it’s gone, nothing will ever capture “those nice bright colors” in quite the same way. We want to say thank you to all the customers who have been loyal to Kodachrome and to us over the years.
