You can find some shares, but they will be very limited. If you have a good relationship with your broker, he/she can point you in the right direction. I heard about $44 a share if you can find some.

Will be interesting to see how it moves in the current market. GL if you get any

I think it pops on the momentum of today. And it is a moneymaker of a company.

Any opinion on the stock?

I would wait about a month or so just so the hoopla dies down.

MA (Master Card) is still cheap.

I would buy them and hold it for a long time. Have some MA right now.

IPO history was made today with Visa's (V) record $17.9 billion offering. At $60 per share (where the stock opened in the secondary market), Visa's market cap is $58 billion. Below we highlight a chart of Visa's market cap versus MasterCard's (MA) market cap.

As shown, Visa's is currently more than double that of MasterCard! In the first quarter of 2008, Visa had revenues of $1.49 billion. MasterCard hasn't released Q1 '08 revenue numbers yet, but current estimates are for $1.06 billion.
