Hi There, Thanks so much for taking the time to respond. I assume without being able to access the persistent storage features, there is no other way to store PGP keys - perhaps the most important thing I was hoping to do. I mean, changing personalized settings from their defaults is a miner inconvenience, but I was hoping to at least be able to store keys. If not I will just have to wait until next year *sigh*. Thanks again.
