My lucky day... there is such a store right next door to where I work, so as soon as I read the e-mail, I got up and walked over - e-mail in hand - to see about such a bar. Okay - not my lucky day. The guy working the store seemed very suspicious of my motives, even after I detailed why I wanted such a device. He seemed reluctant to do much of anything other than to get my identification and so forth. But, the item was clearly not in stock. At least, not out front in the display area. We ended the conversation with him suggesting that I come back when his boss was in the store. Anyway, he's probably calling cop friends right now to see if I'm a terrorist or something. That's the impression I left with, anyway. Well, I too have a cop friend, so I'll talk to him and see if I can get some info, or if he can get it for me... or go to the store with me as a character witness.... oh, wait, that might not work either - he knows me too well :-) The hunt continues.
