To rather sadly follow-up my own thread. The asking prices for these
things currently are high. All the cards I've seen advertised are �40 or
�50. A new V3 1000 costs �42 and is considerably faster. I'll just have to
wait 'till these people drop their prices or I see a cheap one at a fair.
I was expecting to pay no more than �20-�25 <sigh>
