If not does anyone know where I can get one? Please let me know! It should accept the R55 remote fine, as well as any other relatively recent (ala the last 4 or 5 years) Sony remote. The newer Sony remotes should work fine too. See below. You can probably get one from Sony, but they would probably charge an astronimical price for it. Hyperjack (http://www.iris.ne.jp/cgraph/hyperjack/HYPERPLmd.htm) sells some Sony remotes for 4,500 yen. (Despite the cryptic URL, they are an extremely reputable dealer). That's about $41, which is still not cheap. And you still add 2,500 yen S&H. You're going to see which is cheaper. It looks like Hyperjack is selling the newer Sony remotes ("stick style", which you don't twist), but they should still work. I don't know if any other dealers sell the remotes. Anybody else know? ----------------------------------------------------------------- To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
