apparently i misunderstood the introductory pricing for PROBE1K.  it's $15 
*off* the $75 price, and $25 off for registered PROBEV7 users.

my stupidity--sorry for getting anyone excited.  i'm sending DataFile 
another $35, but still think it's an excellent value.  apparently a lot of 
work went into this new version of PROBE for the PCR-1000 because it's a 
very different animal than the Optocom receiver.
