  Probably been covered before but does anyone know where I can buy one of these remotes?
  
  No one has them in stock and they are back ordered at B&H for who knows how long?
  
  Is there another solution?

  YES! There is!

  I saw that on a google for the Nikon part number.
  
  I just can't find that remote on a website I trust enough to actually enter my CC number.
  
  I am assuming with the PoGo solution you just do a code search until you hear the shutter. I think that is what they said in that thread.

  Exactly. Make sure you try the household remotes lying around first. A lot of the newer ones have universal capability. And RF frequencies aren't that big of a secret. I'm sure Nikon is using a common one to avoid issues with the FCC.

  Thanks for the help so far,
  
  I had assumed this thing was IR, it is an RF remote?

  I just ordered one for $18 from the odessa camera that was in that link. She said it would be mailed out today.

  Oops...it is IR. Didn't see what I was typing there.
