    I found the nails on Amazon. They are on the way. It will take 10 or 12 days though.

    I get the impression that Porter Cable replaced Black & Decker's "Firestorm" grade tools. They're still making 690 & 7518 routers though. I'm not a contractor but if I worked in parts of urban areas where things had a strong tendency to grow legs, I'd have second thoughts about having high quality high dollar tools on a job site.
