Hear, hear.  Paul, add me to the list of those in your corner.  I REALLY hope 
that this is just a misunderstanding of the way things are in  the repair 
world.  Ilene, MANY items are NOT available except to those with the big 
bucks to have a major repair shop and do a high volume on the parts....Paul 
would have to make a HUGE investment to get such parts.  I REALLY hope this 
gets straightened out....and we all need to understand that certain component 
parts are NOT available except thru "offical" channels...ever try to get a 
sound chip for an Apple logic board?  I did....by the time I would have 
received it, it would have cost more than the board I was repairing....this 
is why I DO NOT offer my services for public use....I admire Paul, DTT and 
MCE for doing so, and will use them when needed.   But, there will ALWAYS be 
limitations on what is repairable.
