Oh great, now I have a fan club laughing at my misery of not being able to open this bloody thing. Hey if worst comes to worst, I have a rather expensive cricket ball to get my moneys worth out of..... lol :D

If anyone wants to send me hints, tips or preferably full instructions, PLEASE DO SO!!

oh, no, we are not laughing at you, we all laugh together here!
Don't fret, have a good look at the forum, and keep positive, it will come.

But if all else fails we could gather an impressive cricket team??

I emailed sonicwarp to see what they thought about the typo. They didnt beleive me so i emailed them a pic.

heres wat they said - from andrew@sonicwarp.com

Wow, that Isis is going to be worth a few pounds in years to come !

The engraving machines we use are computer based, and we have noticed that sometimes the number or word that is coded in the computer doesnt get translated correctly through the engraver and thus when it should have engraved a letter R it actually engraved in your case a T.

I have not seen this before on another isis, but we have had a few key and isis numbers engraved with mismatches from the computer

Hope this explains things

Best Regards

Andrew

I have a feeling (but I might be wrong) that if you buy your isis direct from sonic warp it has "sonicwarp.com" (or similar :D ) on the bottom.

The "sonicwarp.com" must be a new thing, a friend bought me mine directly from SW, and all it has is the ISIS number at the bottom
