    I would like to see no more PRS-20 stuff on this first page.

    I would rather see lots of posts about the PRS-50 :D :D :D :D

    :twisted:

    I'm sure Eddie would too, after all it would mean that another project was finished.

    I agree

    Seeing the 20 posts make me think about how long they had to wait... and deals a blow to my hopes each morning that today will be the day for the 50

    Just my feelings...

    Too bad, I was really hoping (I know: don't count on anything!) to be able to go to Italy wearing a PRS-50...

    It'll probably be a 6309 or SMP now.

    I spoke with Fricker yesterday and they still don't have the dials. Trying to get them to apply any urgency to a project meets with about as much success as asking a celebrity chef to prepare you egg & chips.

    :lol: Its been a project dear to your heart and you've spent the better part of the past 4 years with Fricker trying to get it realised. Its certainly in the realm of myth; if anything never comes of it, we'll always have those beautiful artist renderings of it to drool over! :wink:

    That'll probably take quite some time as the holidays are going to start soon in Germany...

    There are no "general" holidays in Germany. Every state (Bundesland) has it's own school holiday period. Several already have school holidays, the last holidays will start this weekend. Holidays where *everyone* has time off are usually limited to large factories.

    As I happen to work in a law firm specialized in labour law, I'm aware.

    However, I 've worked for several firms that continued working during holidays, but the pace was way slower than usually.

    Finishing projects simply wasn't possible, due to lack of capacity.
    However, it was an entirely different product that was made in the firms I've worked for.
