LAG,
Well, I think it is VERY clear from the description that it is a NEW cable
manufactured to be a replacement for Apple's own cable. Nowhere does it
indicate that it is anything but a 3rd party replacement for Emate owners
with display problems. You may have the mistaken impression that there's
just a handfull of these available, which isn't the case at all.
By the way, these cables WERE offered on the NewtonTalk list before they
were offered on Ebay.
I'd be suprised if there's more than a couple of bidders on this auction -
since it's such a specialty item.

> THE only problem i have is this. we all know how rare and valuable these
cables are and so does the person selling them. now by putting them on ebay
they are hoping that a person who isnt on this list and doesnt know where
they came from will hopefully get into a bidding war with only an hour left
making the 49. disappear in a cloud of over anxious dust. if the cables was
offered here first for those of us that actively use the emates then i would
say yes the person isnt going for any profit. but we all know that ebay is
the place to go if u want to get paid for an item at above cost. and we
also know the person trying to sell this one is only in it for the money.
he doesnt care about the list as anything more than a barrel full of money
for him to dip in at his leisure. correct me if im wrong.
