Thanks Paul. And I thought I'd pass along a great deal in case anyone is interested. I just returned from CompUSA where I bought a C86 for $99. It has a $30 mail-in-rebate, PLUS a mail-in-$20 gift card offer. And that not all! If you purchase qualifying Epson paper, you get a $10 mail-in-rebate! So, it's like getting the C86 for $49!
