the problem is that old  Novag's  ran on an entirely different procceser and at
different clock speeds the these new models
so its hard to just seperate out the software differences alone
if the hardware difference was only the clockspeed then your idea would work
better

to be honest as a collector i am not so interested if the program is entirely
different or only slightly different or even exactly the same(which i am
confident it is not)

i like the Star Sapphire and the Star Ruby and i dont seem to be bothered by the
LCD pieces like most people are

in addition the SS has already been discountinued making it a collectors item
already

Best
Steve
