The uIEC/SD I bought from Jim Brain was delivered Friday night (USPS 
was actually unable to deliver for several days in our area).  My 
mail is currently going to a different location than we're living, so 
I picked it up yesterday, and retrieved my customized C64 from 
storage, and got everything plugged in last night (this was the first 
time we'd been able to get our car out of the driveway in over two 
weeks).

Once I figured out how to use it, all I can say it is seriously cool, 
way better than my MMC-Replay for dealing with D64 images, and it was 
a lot cheaper!  I'm even able to use it with the MMC-Replay plugged 
in so I have my Ethernet connection.  With the MMC-Replay I was only 
able to get one or two D64 images to work, with the uIEC most I've 
tried have worked.  I've been playing "Temple of Apshai" all day and 
having a blast! :-)

Now to decide if I put it in some sort of case, or if I mount it 
inside the C64 somehow.
