Here is that information... I found a temporary source for used PowerGloves -- about 20 of them, actually -- and I bought them all up to sell to anyone that is interested on the VR Groups that I frequent... So, if anyone is interested -- they are used, but working fine -- and I am selling them for $30 each, plus shipping. And, I will guarantee them for 2 months! If you have any problems within 2 months of you receiving it from me, just send it back and I'll send you another one! (Of course, if you cut it up, then the "guarantee/warranty" is void, so if you are going to use them for garage-VR (who isn't!?), then please cut up an extension cable and connect the glove to it -- instead of damaging the actual glove stuff. I have both Large and Medium available -- if you aren't familiar with them, please note that the "Mediums" are quite small (since they were originally intended for a younger audience). So, most people probably want the "Large" size -- unless you have a smaller-than-average hand, then go with the "Medium." Also, if you are going to cut apart the glove and take out the flex sensors (maybe for mounting in your own glove or other project), please take one of the Medium ones -- the electronics inside are the same size, so since you aren't going to use the glove portion itself, you don't lose anything. That way, there are more Large sizes for the people that actually need them. If you'd like one, just email me and let me know and I'll reserve one for you and let you know where to send the payment. I expect shipping (via UPS Ground) to be about $5 each -- so the total including shipping will be about $35. If you want it shipped COD or anything special, that's fine, but you'll be responsible for any extra fees, of course. Soon (which is relative, of course -- "soon" for me means as soon as I get some free time -- which may not be for a while, unfortunately), I will have updated the PowerGlove FAQ and will have a Web site for accurate and current PowerGlove information. Thanks! Talk to you later... - John (Goggan)... jgoggan@sojourn.com / jgoggan@dcg.com --------------------------------------- ************************************************************ End of MarketBooth Digest ************************************************************
