I think this is a pity because you definitely had a reasonable asking price,
though it wasn't really clear to me if the $175 was going to be the final
price.

As I've stated before Ferdi, it might be much wiser to be more careful in
posting and choosing your wording, as it turns out both to the list and to
it's members in private.

Quite often I get the feeling it's not as much what you're doing as the way
you're doing it.

Like offering backlight upgraded Newts, very cool!
But than you market them as an original feature, not so cool...

So if you would post with maybe just a touch less enthusiasm and just a
little more thought, I would think that most 'problems' would be solved.

And cool ideas might come to bear fruit...

So much for grandpa's lecture of the day ;-)
