Well, I upsed it off today, and my counselor at the State said that they 
would do the transplant, at least I thik that is what she was saying, smile.

As the Classic isn't being  sold anymore, nor is it being upgraded.  And as 
I have an open case.

Well either way I get a working unit back.

So will wait and see.

Will probably take a couple of weeks, perhaps I will get it back before 
Christmas?

That would be really nice.

Dog ownership is like a rainbow.
 Puppies are the joy at one end.
 Old dogs are the treasure at the other.

At least, thank goodness, your Braillenote lasted
through your advanced education. LIke a true friend,
it didn't let you down. Did you say what you're going
to replce it with? I guess I missed that.
