How do you *know* you have to pay for the EPROM when you 
haven't even spoken to the dealer yet? You're jumping the gun, 
IMO. Let us know how it turns out. Has anybody else spoken with 
Yamaha NL?

Here in the US Yamaha provided me the EPROM free of charge 
(and out of warranty too.) I expected to pay for shipping and 
handling but there was no charge for that either.
