Oh and I have a several Plan B M15 VCOs right now so while not  
exactly the same or in a form factor as compatible I can work with  
VCOs with similar capabilities outside of  the 200e format such as  
Serge's very CV-able approach to slews.

Again I can't really say since I don't have mine yet.
I was just thinking it's likely a really huge chore to use paper or  
something if I needed to offload the data of a second 210e if I  
needed or wanted to.

Then again I'm still stoked about working with the module despite  
that limitation.
