We've been sunning ourselves in the Italian lakes for the last few days so managed to miss Dirk Meyer's presentation on the K7 last week. Sorry about that.

We'll try to find out. ® RegiStroid K7 While Athlete's Foot appears to be the name of a chain of sports shops in the US, it has a different meaning here.
