He has a MSc in Electrical Eng -- unimpressive, but a nerdy interest in all
such things. He modifies motherboards and pores over their design, would
this not be too basic?

Has someone mentioned this site yet ?

That`s the fella !

Mind you, if he's a true techie he'll spend more effort boosting the power,
extending its range or so on than actually using it.

Is it the remote control vertical blinds, the docking solution or the
Australian oyster industry that should be making me think you are a

How odd. I'd have thought something like Duracell batteries would have
been near essential for this! I know somethings dislike the 1.2v rechargables
but Duracells??

Ahh, Duracell were 'known' for having problems in certain devices
because they had a positive 'bump' on the AA cells that less pronounced
than most other makes, they caused all sort of intermittent problems if
the battery compartment was marginal, not sure if this is the reason
here though.....

Ah there's always one miserable git. My guess - aged 50-60, flat cap, scowl
and a long suffering wife.

Nope. I'd be off to buy her the Oyster if I thought it would get used.
