certainly empathize with the 'only keyboard' part of that. But Alesis 
seems to be trying to bend over backwards to be flexible as far as 
fixing units under warranty. You might try to argue them into making 
it a warranty repair. They told me that if my Ion (fails diagnostics, 
but does not exhibit the infamous self edit problem) EVER exhibits 
this problem they would fix it under warranty. This came from the 
manager of tech support. I think that they are sensitive to problems 
with early units...and mine isn't even an early one.
