git!  ;)

no tips from me. never been lucky enough to find one. i think i'm right to say the vss30 and vss200 are the bendable ones and the vss100 the not so bendable?

where did you find it?

Guess where?

... ebay. as always.  it was £20.  which isn't too bad considering the sk1's usually go for £30+.

As far as i'm aware the vss-100 is the least bendable and the 200 has some of the 30's features hidden amidst the IC's from what I've been able to dig up online.  I haven't had a chance to probe yet as i've been working on an sa-2 and a mini TV.  As soon as I find anything, i'll have it posted!

::)  I was being uber-lazy.  I realise that I ask a lot of... obvious/pointless questions without really thinking them through.  I am an inquisitive kinda guy... by inquisitive, i mean lazy... but by lazy i mean that I use my initiative to hunt down an easier solution...  by hounding you guys on this forum :D

i'll get on the VSS-200 then...
