BTW- there is a button down in the lower righthand corner named multi-quote, so you can quote more than one post in your post.

I wouldn't call that "research" - that it's like it was in earlier models. I'd call that 'as we've seen before'.

But ... I'm not disagreeing that this is what the chip is.

It is a newer model though... We have seen these before but not this particular model.
