Personally I don't think the figure is accurate too (although I have no information on that). It's hard to imagine people up here would buy all those high tech toys when most of them are still using aged cell phone (don't take it an insult pls), not to mention other grandold AV equipments. It's unlike the market in Japan, people always opt for the latest high tech toys (just check out their 2ndhand retailers and u know what I mean). regards, Alan Chan _________________________________________________________________ Join the world’s largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
