    Sorry, I would not accept a delivery packed like that.

    What's with the "These always seem to wear down very easily" , but in good condition in the auction comments? S1 and S2's hold up pretty well.

    Looks to be the cheaper USB-Serial adapters included.

    I got the impression they were referring to the battery covers wearing down, but that doesn't make much sense. :confused:

    Your correct Chris. I just got the message that the S2 would wear down. But like you said, does not make sense the battery cover would wear down. The tabs might break off.

    I have an S1 that the battery cover needs to be taped to stay closed.

    @Ken: Parallax South is meeting up soon in June. xanadu, Gordon and myself. Can you loan us an S3 prototype for review and photo opportunity? You'll get it back.

    I love how every thread seems to end in us asking about the S3 hehe.

    ...we can have one right?

    I already took an old blue S1 and painted it green for the switch. Ken's so busy he'll never know!

    Edit: Oops. Hey, look a Zeppelin!
