Order 64 bit DVD?

I'm going to buy Windows Vista Home Premium.

I have the options to go to the store and buy it and get 'only' the 32 bit
version. And after that order online the 64 bit DVD.
Or I can order through a webshop buying hardware and get the 64 bit Vista
Premium as OEM.

But I rather have the full version, as I already have an upgrade version
that doesn't have an option to order the 64 bit client. So it is to get the
64 client I will buy a new licence. (It is some cheap offers on it now so it
is excusable to spend more money on it, if I would have to motivate it.)

But before I pick what I do.
Is it possible to get the 64bit DVD for Home Premium as a download? If so
where?
I mean as I can order the physical media for 64 are there anywhere to order
the DVD as a download.
Ofcourse I will have the license key.

I'm asking this as if I go to the store and buy the 32 bit I have to wait
longer for the shipping of the DVD as opposed to if I order a 64 bit OEM from
webshop.

Please understand that only retail version of Windows Vista Ultimate
includes both 32 and 64 Bit DVDs. You cannot download the additional media,
you have to order it.

That's what I figered.

(Would have been good to have the option to download it. As it is ordering
the DVD.)

Only channels I am aware of Downloading Windows Vista is TechNET
Subscription, MSDN Subscription, Volume License Agreement which cost way
more than a single Vista license.
