Well, the only reason I brought it up is that I know of a cell
manufacturer in Europe called KTS.

Rich,
That's what I've read (someone from HumanWare 
mentioned it; KGS, KTS, I don't know, but I 
definitely heard it is KGS).  Whatever the 
case, the newer ones are superior to Tieman 
cells (this is solely my opinion).
Regards,
Joseph
