*grins all round* indeed infected we are.
improvement was actually my plan.  i'm not planning on 100% accurate 
physically, but to capture the sound.  i _really_ like the layout of 
the mini's controls (and the flip-up design), in fact i'm drawing an 
illustrator file of it right now.  if anyone wants a copy of this file 
when i'm done email me personally (ie not on the list, it will better 
catch my attention).
i may end up doing a totally unique synth from various component 
designs with a mini front panel...*muses*

have nice days.
