Thanks!  Any information I consider useful!  One characteristic I noticed with
the Fidelity is that it gets warm underneath while it is being used.  It also
has ventilation holes and requires six batteries that don't seem to last very
long.  You can make it play illegal moves if you hit the play button when the
game is over.  It also likes to commit blatant suicide from time to time for no
apparent reason on the lower levels.  Not sure if its a bug or a feature.
Anyway, I still enjoy it.


Cheers,
Tom.
