This was the first thing I realized I'd been missing. I hadn't even
noticed until I could hear them again.

Now if only they cost as much it should cost to make them and sell
them. There isn't $3000 dollars of tech and service a pair in them.

RIGHT! When a TV set or lap top can be made for a few hundred
bucks I'll be Da--d if I'll pay those scalpers the fortune
they want for a hearing aid. I worked in the electronic
industry for 50 yrs and I would guess it costs about 100$
for one of those they want thousands for. I'll put up with
my hearing loss. :-(
