Why must you post this stuff when I am trying to save for a big ticket purchase related to this hobby/non money making job?

It's certainly not a bad deal. This board is very rare and there are some people who want it just as much as others want Kishsavers. There aren't that many people who want it that bad (to my knowledge) and I'm not sure if they are willing to pay $200+ for it, but I can guarantee there will be at least a couple decent bids on it.

Looks like it; but he says he uses an F-122 day-to-day, so he probably belongs here anyway. :)

keep in mind you can't just put a soarer box on it like you can the 3290 keyboard. This will require controller replacement.

Indeed an unsaver - you don't save money at all buying it, instead you use up your savings.

I eagerly await the next phase in WCass' Xtant project. Once everyone can get their own Model F TKLs things will probably get better.

Think I'll pass on this one. Keeping my eyes open for a 3290 terminal version.
