Subject: Re: CS60 for cannibalizing...? **Voice card compatability

From: "Quazimodo" <noddyspuncture@...>

So what is the concensus here guys?

I bought a voice card (from a cs60 I think it was) as spare for my
cs80. Does this mean that it won't work even with modification?

I need to know please...;^)

Cheers.
TOM
