Re: key mode and patches

Anu:

Thanks for clearing up my attempts at spreading disinformation.  That's what happens when I reply when I really should be working.

Was I correct in stating that you cannot do this on the MEK/DEVO?

Also:  I agree with you re:  the Taurus.  I would doubt they would engineer a new Taurus without the hopes of putting it in the regular lineup, even if it will have more limited sales compared to the Lil' Phatty.
