Instead, If you are thinking of getting one of the Q105's, note that it seems like the prices might start creeping up. I just bought one from Warehouse 54, and paid $20 more than it would have cost had I bought last week.... They still have the lowest price ($349), but $329 would have been so much nicer :-) -- | Paul E. Jacoby, 3M Company | | | Maplewood, MN 55144-1000 | Parachuting?
