    I'd call your last post a fine exaple of why you were one of the few people I ask advice from. Scary, now that you mention it, it probanly was $1500 (still about 33% higher than it ought to be, but I would have paid that).

    You see jcmarcos, here's is THE man on the post with total recall, who has done a lot of research on topics related to our market. And no, I don't think you were being sacastic. I feel that way every time I see a new promising introduction. Then all the economics courses I took in the past kick in, and I reach the same (somewhat depressing solution) - not practical. For now the MOS development has the right idea.

    BTW - Andreas, thanks for throwing the Digikey reference back at me, I may have to buy one of those just to play with it (if they're available).
