Hi Sarah,

>>OK, let's not get too excited here: The choices are: color, ABW, 
>>and Black. That sounds like BO, but... until someone actually 
>gets one...

>Awwwwwww, Steve. 
>Anyone planning on testing one soon?

Steve should have one in a couple of weeks.  Keep your fingers
crossed.  Because it says "Black" instead of "Black Only" it may be
just a quick and dirty way to print a supposedly BW print from a color
image.  A while back someone reported on a "Black" option (I can't
remember which printer) and it used color inks to create the tones.

BTW, Steve said that the 3800 will take custom paper sizes down to 4x5
ish, like the 13" printers.  So that's one good thing.

Regards,
Clayton
