I'll never forget that - and iLiad always will have a special place in my memory...

That capability certainly has it's place. There was definitely a lot to like about the iLiad flexibility. Hopefully we'll see continuing enhancements to the 800 that will bring back some of that capability. The iLiad continues to be one of those ground breaking devices in my mind. It had many flaws, but was so ahead in some ways as well.
