I mentioned the Unilink adapter from Sony (which you are apparently
aware of) in my previous mail. I just wanted to add that if someone
were to buy the Sony adapter and reverse engineer it, we'd be happy to
post plans on the MDCP. Paying $100 or more for a few resistors and
a connector is something MD hobbyists should be able to avoid.
