yes, but not listed on their main menu...and that page says out of stock

Humorous aside:

Years ago when 20 megs was a LARGE drive, I worked for a distributor.

Every day I asked the warehouse supervisor to give me a list of out of
stock items.

I would then call all of my obnoxious customers and leave messages on
their answering machines giving them low ball prices on everything that
was out of stock with the proviso that everything was based up stock on
hand.

So they called, we didn't have it...and then we talked real prices for
real inventory that they would really buy.

Worked for me.

Since you don't seem to believe that it can be done...send me
two of the RaQ3's.....if I do make them act like a RaQ4(software
wise)...I'll ship one of them back to you with a check for 300 bucks...and
I'll keep the second one.


Seems like a fair price if I can do it...and it would relieve you of
having to think about it.
