   I may look in to that. I'm just so depressed that the Model 1 SCD is   
   finally dying on me. I bought that thing brand new for $265 a little   
   after it came out...loved it. What's also upsetting is that to do the   
   X'eye option I have to give up my Model 1 Genesis(my dad got it for me   
   for X-Mas the year it came out, I still have the original box, manual,   
   everything that goes with it. Though I don't like how it looks...I may   
   see if I can find a model 2 SCD unit. That might clear this whole thing   
   up. :)
