As a person who has bought many plane tickets at the last minute, it appears that this practice will no longer be allowed in the coming weeks. American Airlines has released the latest TSA Secure Flight Information and it states that TSA mandated Secure Flight Passenger Data is required at least seventy-two (72) hours before departure.

As a result of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) mandate, beginning November 1, all passengers will be required to have Secure Flight Passenger Data (SFPD) in their reservation at least 72 hours prior to departure. This is the next phase in a program that was initiated by the TSA in 2009...
If you have reservations for travel on or after November 1, 2010, you need to provide your SFPD at least 72 hours prior to departure. You will not be able to travel without the TSA mandated Secure Flight Passenger Data in your reservation.
