808 State Discussion

And maybe I'm just losing my MIND!! Sorry, I should really check more thoroughly before posting, but for some reason I thought the features on Optibuk were newer and/or different versions than what came out on Optical. They aren't in my immediate possession as I'm writing this so I can't check ...

Nope - Optical and Optibuk are two different animals, entirely.
