I have heard Homasote refered to as "pressed board" on ocassion, if that helps for a generic name. In my area, Buffalo, NY, some of the Home Depot's carry it and others don't. Kinda weird I thought. And even at the HD that does have it, not all of the employees know what I was talking about. I checked with some smaller lumber yards in the area and most of them stock it. If you're still having trouble locating it, try the smaller guys, chances are they have it, and they will know what you are talking about. And Geoff, the product you describe does sound similar. The know our product is made of pressed, recycled paper as opposed to cane material. And generally, Homasote holds small track nails very well.
