- I tried to contact them three times today to get a retail price, but no
- one was there at 9:15a, 2:30p, 5:50p. Babbage's also does not carry it,
- nor is it listed in the catalogs they can order from. Sorry I don't have
- more info on how to get it.

- Thanks to those that responded, and to all the netters that have helped me
