I wish I could get my Accent SA figured out.  It was working great until
I came into work one morning and it was dead.  It says "Accent ready"
like normal when you turn it on but nothing else.  I tried disconnecting
and reconnecting the internal battery, altering or switching cables with
no results.  I haven't done anything with it for some time now but I may
give one of the phone numbers Kirk hs given out recently and way back
when I brought up my problem before.  External synths are worth every
bit of their weight in gold as far as I'm concerned.
