Thanks a lot.
Yeah iam trying to find a "small ios" but have to compromise on features!!
But if we load an ios less tha 12MB,i think it should not be a problem..
May be i have to polish my basics with the 2500s and go for lab rentals..
:-((
my 7 * 2500/2600 total price = 1 * 3800!! Home lab made me sick
Regards
Mohamed.
