It looks like the purchased the surplus inventory of some company. The price was very cheap. It was around $80 or so. I did hear however that the usefulness of this device is somewhat limited (speed, character sets...etc.) but for $80 perhaps it would be worth trying. I would be interested in hearing more about the results. P. Fons {ihnp4,pur-ee}!uiucdcs!uicsl!thinfilm
