I did mess around with that parameter a bit.  I didn't know what it 
did technically speaking but it certainly added some "fizz" 
(among other things).

I was also digging the "User Hack".  No idea what that's about, 
but boy does it get nasty in a hurry!

Thanks for the detailed comments on that.  I noticed the hinges 
in the photographs and assumed it meant easy access to the 
guts.  A nice design.  

I thought I'd email DSI if and when I get closer to making a 
purchase (since I can't seem to get the dang thing out of my 
head that may be coming sooner rather than later) to see if there 
are any possibilties there, including special ordering one with 
the apparently "old" style encoders.  (Unlikely I realize but it 
doesn't hurt to ask).
