A last plea for help...  
I have a Pioneer CLD-900, which I am very pleased with.  However, I'd like
to be able to control it with a computer.   The CLD-900 has a DIN type
connector on the back labeled I/O port.  From what I've been able to DRAGGGGG
out of Pioneer, this is meant to be plugged into a box that will change
the I/O ports signals into something compatible with an RS-232.  The problem
is no one I talk to at Pioneer can tell me where I can buy one of these
magic boxes.  
Does anyone know of anyway I can use a computer to control this player.
I'm hoping someone out there has one of those I/O port to RS-232 adapters
that they are willing to sell.  But, barring that does anyone know what
the format/characteristics of the signals in the CLD-900 I/O port are?
I've tried for two years to get information on that screwy I/O port but
so far nothing.  Please email any information you have to me at the address
below.  Thanks.
