Ah... I wondered what the sparcom Cards had on them as I don't know that anyone 
has got one of the damn things yet.  ;)

Then I wonder how you make any money at all.. The purpose of this post was to 
inform everyone that Sparcom has bumped the EE aplication card back to 
APRIL!!!  Are they actually wanting to sell some cards or is this just a big
ploy to hold a few hundred people in suspence.. Educalc is going nuts.  They 
just keep getting orders, (last I checked the backorders were at around 200)
and sparcom just keeps bumping the dates back further and further.
