When I get my pimped 34S from Eric Rechlin once he starts providing them with crystal, IR, and micro-USB, I will serve the community by putting one of mine back into circulation. It's nice to have two, but three is excessive. I also think it would be great if Eric would consider accepting lightly-used and operational 34S units in trade toward modified ones, enabling him to add refurbished units to his inventory at a lower price for users who don't mind that. I have said elsewhere that I would pay well to have Eric or someone similarly skilled upgrade my units. I am a menace with a soldering iron.
I don't think that Canadians, like me, and other non-Americans can order calcs from the US Amazon site, so if any forward-thinking Americans in the 34S fan club wish to buy up 30b's at that bargain rate for resale or trade with users outside the US who may have trouble finding units at a decent price, I don't think anyone will be saddled with units they can't unload. I also feel the same way about the programming cables--they aren't going to last forever, as Gene has warned, so once I acquire units with USB connectivity and I am confident with the robustness of the built-in USB-serial interface I plan to donate my cable to someone who doesn't have a USB-enabled 34S.
Let's keep the love alive as long as possible!
