Hey Bert, thanks for the info. I keep forgetting that Philips' homebase is over there in your neck of the woods.

I tend to share your and GM's view...we've come pretty far with the tech; maybe now would be a great time to perfect existing technologies and make them truly affordable to the masses. An industry-wide recognition that after dumbing-down the audience with lowgrade downloads and flash players a reaffirmation of quality media is the only thing that is going to push product in the short and midruns. I suspect that in trying times most folks view stopgaps and mediocre "advances" as superfluous.

Hope that beaut of a Lenko is still treatiung you well. Keep 'em spinning brother...

Peace,

sticks
