Are they still classified as munitions, or does the recent relaxing of
certain governmental muscles let 128 bit encryption over the borders? I
thought that most crypto was okay to export now.
BTW - someone should check to make sure that these units are 18VDC... I
indicated that I though so before, but that's second hand info (I don't
have my units yet). I don't want anyone to get miffed about it if they're
not 18VDC ;-<
