John,
I've got a spare - brand new, in the box, and all manuals. Email me (minus the XXX) and I'll make you a great deal. I would send this directly but your email address is probably not going to work! Same deal for anyone else but John gets the first shot at it. I would post a price but that would be ... spam.
