Jeff,
We have a bundled elevation and depth product that includes a digital
slope map of the entire world, combining best available data from
SRTM30, GTOPO30, and ETOPO2. It is available in ESRI or binary format.
See STRM30 Enhanced Global Map-Elevation/Slope/Aspect at
http://www.terraviva.net/srtm/index.html.
