Thanks peter.  I've not heard back from Roger, so maybe he is taking my 
advice.  TBT, there is no money in doing it, it is an adapter board that 
allows other storage devices to be plugged into the same socket an EB-101 
plugs into to put a working bluetooth serial port on a 22 year old computer.
He will be lucky to recoup his expenses.  Its like climbing a mountain, 
because its there. :-)
