      Hi John,

       First time I've seen this with "Olympia" on it. But I have one in my
    locker at work with "Canon" on it that a customer brought in. Guess they
    may have discovered Canon wasn't pleased (same logo,et al). I'm giving 
    this one to our rep next time he comes. He told me Canon in Mexico is
"working" on this. A few years ago while working in another store, I had
    a customer from Mexico that said they paid over $300 for it there. Very
    sad if true. But I'm sure sooner or later someone will put them out of
business.

                                                enjoy,
                                                  Brad
