Been without my sony for 2 months now while they repair it so I decided to heck with it, when / if it ever comes back to me I'll just sell it. The EBW1150 works great, and I've already got my conversion method's in place from before.
This weekend I'll go through the three things above and you can convert my babbling into english for the wiki if you don't mind. <G>
