Mark--
I think that when I wrote you before I wasn't sure of several things,
mostly because I was in Major Panic mode getting ready for Rochester.
I made my price goal, but just barely. It's $99.  I wish it could
be cheaper, but high quality machining at small volume doesn't come
easily.  Dalia now has the bulk of my first production run, and if
she is now back she can send you one.  Let me know if you can't reach
her.  There seemed to be much appreciation for the thing back at
Rochester and quite a few sold.  Which is satisfying, but let me
assure you that one doesn't enter into this sort of thing to get rich!!!

If you do get one, I think you will have fun with it.  I've surely
enjoyed using my prototypes.

Best wishes and thanks-

John
