Thanks for sharing that, it's both interesting and encouraging. Yeah, I
figure, AAs would have been nice, but it's going to be a great box either
way. I just paypal'ed the money to the seller, I'm looking forward to
playing with this thing. A friend of mine just got one of the FM ones
today, and is thrilled with it.

Thanks,
Mike
