I completely agree with you skiCO and think you make some good points. Too bad Canon chooses to ignore them! That said, I've given up on Canon. They have lost my business for GOOD. That's just me though. I subscribed to this thread and get inundated ...
Put me on that list. Extremely frustrating. If no viable solution if discovered soon, I will leave canon and not look back. Nothing like throwing money away..... MP560
