Cory, sorry to let you know, yes, he did buy two. In fact, we placed the order for 3- I bought one more too, destined for eBay. I thought I'd dislike the gold, but turns out I love it- I'll use my old ist D (I've always wanted to say that!) to take some pics which should be up for all to drool pretty soon. Not an LX2000, but still an eyecatcher.
Cheers :) Ryan ----- Original Message ----- From: "cbwaters" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, September 01, 2004 12:07 PM Subject: Re: ENABLED limited ist D!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! > I'm quite certain you meant to type "I've bought ONE too" instead of "I've > bought two" > > > Has anybody actually bought TWO of these things at once? > Holy crap! > > CW > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "John Coyle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Tuesday, August 31, 2004 6:35 PM > Subject: Re: ENABLED limited ist D!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! > > > > Simon, you're dead right, Ryan rang me and was so fired up he had to come > > and show me it!
