	I heard that one reason for there not being a PAL Toaster is
because a certain chip, manufactured by Sony is not available in PAL. 
Sony will not consider manufacturing a PAL-compatible version until there
is a large market for it.

	Perhaps NewTek could ask another company to design a NTSC/PAL
switchable version - and C= could get HP to make them.  Hey, it's just an
idea...

	Cheers
