I understand that -- company policies often pay more regard to the company's
financial well-being than to the consumers' best interests.
But to say "you must buy" rather than "Casio recommends that you buy"
strikes me as fundamentally dishonest -- especially as not all of the
people on this list own the Casio variant.
You've been on this list for some time, according to the archives, and
therefore I'm sure you're well aware that there are indeed alternative
methods of communicating with the units. Perhaps you're not allowed to
recommend (or even mention) them, but they do exist and they do work.

Funny, you didn't mention that bit about the warranty when you informed me
(in a message that for some reason did *not* go to the list at large) that
I could use the non-Casio adapter with my Casio unit...
Is there a list of hardware and software which *is* recommended by the
company? I find it hard to believe that using a piece of software that
isn't recommended will void a hardware warranty, but I'd be interested
nonetheless in knowing what Casio "allows" us to put onto our machines.
