Yes, they exist. In fact, it's starting to be hard to find decent
prices for anything else. ::-) I've bought a couple of cheap ones from
Harvey Norman, and http://www.ple.com.au/ advertises them. Many of them
only like being written to at 4x speed, though - 10x ones seem to cost
extra.

BTW - thanks to 3fl.net , there's currently a PARNet Knoppix copy:
