Hello from Gregg C Levine
Makes sense to me. I just finished reading the original posted to Slash Dot.
Attempted to visit the original site, and was turned away via their layout,
no English setting for it. Then visited the Lik-Sang site. They are still
listing the adapter as temporarily not available, and do not list a date.
They also list the manufacturer as Sega. Which leads me to the conclusion
that the company name quoted on the Slash Dot article, as the original name
for building the thing. Meanwhile my original supplier of the unit, here in
the US, is busy running down their inventory.
