"they discovered it didn't work as advertised, so they removed it from the list". What the H are you talking about? It is BS posts like that that make it hard to stay here. CNET tested the O-1000, gave it a "very good" rating 8.0. That is why it was listed..it deserved it! BTW It is still listed as "recommended". <A HREF="http://electronics.cnet.com/electronics/search/1,10126,0-6342420-1302-0,00.html?tag=dir-hd&pn=1&.." target="_new">http://electronics.cnet.com/electronics/search/1,10126,0-6342420-1302-0,00.html?tag=dir-hd&pn=1&...</A>.
