Thanks for the reply Stuart - I'm doing some digging right now to find out
what's up. I found out from some HP reps last month at GIS99 that they are
no longer going to support the 650C. I guess this means that they aren't
going to sell cartridges for them!!
Maybe this is their way to get everyone to trade up and get the whopping
$1,000 trade-in for a 650C
cheers
