[GreenKeys] Hello Greenkeys! (And looking for an M43 KSR)

[David Wade]

I am not sure they are that rare, or that sort after...
.. they pop up on E-Bay UK more often than older models. Whilst this one 
is IMHO almost a  reasonable price its in the UK and most folks won't 
ship to the USA

it may also be UK voltage only, I can't see the voltage selector...
