DO NOT get a Childcare twin rover stroller. It is around $200 from Big W but it is flimsy as and will start to fall apart within 6 months. Have a look at the display models of what you are thinking of and shake it side to side and see how much sway it has, that will tell you if it will stay together.
You could get a toddler seat for your fave single pram that clips onto the side. Babies Galore have them. I can't remember what they are called but both girls would be much happier with that and it will fold down easily for you. I think that option is around $130. I am getting one for Em because I think by the time this bub is born she will want to be walking most of the time.
I have a Babylove Odyssey and it is the best stroller IMO for 2 kids!!
I had a phil and ted, great for 1 kid but piece of shheeet for 2.
Bought the Odyssey and am so happy with it. Both seats recline seperately and to different levels.. It folds small, it is quite light, easy to manova and actually isnt too wide compared to other side by sides. DS is a big 2 year old and still has plenty of room to site or recline and sleep.
Would definately highly recommend it!
You could keep an eye out on ebay for a maclaren. I have a single stroller and it is awsome. For what you need sounds like the maclaren fits the bill besides the price tag that it! It is expensive but i'm glad i spent the money on a single, it really is great.
I just had a quick look and there is one on there ATM in PERTH! Could be your lucky day.
I have the Valco Double Delight Stroller it fits in a standard doorway and is lightweight and easy to manouver around its great! I love the storage space, how it folds down and the kids love it too.

SB - I've sold two of the prams we had - got a great price for my single mountain buggy, which well and truly paid for the P&Ts. If I had known how much I'd dislike the P&Ts I'd have just kept the MB as my single pram. I miss my MB!
Falguni - thanks!!! I'll check it out.
Kellxx & Belle - will check out your recommendations too.
Alioops - thanks for the heads up. I saw a double childcare in Target the other day for $44!! It looked so incredibly flimsy. I don't think I'd even give it to DD#1 as a dolly pram. Might be time to check out toddler seat options, although I'm not sure there is anything that will fit the P&Ts (other than its toddler seat) so I'd be back to having to get another pram anyway I think.
I too was going to suggest the Maclaren. I acutally have a big bulky Valco but has done a great job for me.
My friend has just purchased the Maclaren and she paid the extra as both seats can take up to 25kg and both recline. She did say that if I was looking to by ASAP as the price is about to go up due to the drop in the dollar.
Good luck with whatever you choose, I too have about 3 prams.
