Jackman,
Thank you for the open invitation. Phil and I have emailed back and forth about this a few times and spoken on the phone. I'm still trying to work out transportation and or alternate lodging in order to make an evening there more practical for me. Actually, Phil suggested I not worry about renting a car (I ought to be able to catch a ride) and that I could stay at a motel not far from your home for one night.
I'm really keen to listen to both the new 3s and the 5s. If I don't do it during Axpona, I suspect I may never get another chance to hear a Bamberg speaker.
PM is on the way.
Michael
