I saw Curcos Taiwan at the SMAU in milano do you have a url as not certain then that i had the right place.. but it appeared correct.. > earlier this year and they are very willing to take orders for this type > of machine. The catch is of course that you'll need to get a couple of > hundred at the least. But then again, you get to customize every detail. if there is a way my co will bring in for *BSD and Linux as we do both and sort of resent the attitude that open innovation is being rerouted.. b.t.w. there is a url with the changes one needs to do on Linux to switch so it is usable again AFAIK at least. but since i have yet to try it physically it is still on my wish list only.. please get the url and let me know what should be there.. i will negotiate with them:-)) mind you it needs to be easily usable by both Linux and *BSD or i would not go after it. AFAIK I-Opener adjusted their attitude when they discovered that Linux penguins were adjusting the sets to tune into a different frequency;-)) seems they were losing money @ $99.00 making it on their services which is just fine model for them. so if i did successfully bring it in i need to know how many would be interested? could be a no win situation but maybe ! well gotta go!
