Carol: They are here - at least they were - and I have one. It's kind of on its last shave or two, but it does work. I keep it in our camper, but I think it is a dual voltage 220/110. Now, you have to tell us how you use one of these for voicing. dave *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 2/19/01 at 6:41 PM Carol Beigel wrote: >I need to know a "guy thing" and quickly! Just as many of you have never noticed curling irons, I have never even glanced at electric shavers. Is there a shaver in the U.S. that is very flat, like less than one half inch deep that gives a very fine shave? We are not talking about a Norelco thingee that has three circles on it, but a fine screen about 2 inches wide. I seem to remember a Remington model, as I think my son may have one, but it is big. The one I see here in Iceland is made by Braun and is 220V and is less than the thickness of a pack of cigarettes. > >Kristinnīs father is showing me some very interesting hammer voicing techniques and this particular one is really great! I will check this email each day as if this is not available in the US, I will buy one anyway and just get a power converter to charge it. It is really nice to have someone demonstrate to me how to get the "mellow, European sound" out of a piano, and how and where to voice hammers to get different sounds on the soft and hard blows. > >As you can see, I am still alive and survived the flight back to Reykjavik from Akureyri. You know, fjords may look great in pictures, but flying in and out of them in a wind that blows through the zipper in your jacket is a real experience! I have some great pictures that I took hanging onto the side mirror of a jeep so I wouldnīt blow off the edge of a cliff! Geat views, though! Also, the food is as good as Paris and they have Pepsi here! > >Let me know if this shaver is available in the U.S. Thanks. > >Carol Beigel David M.
