Precisely, although the most recent model Dynalink (which I've just
purchased) has been fitted with a socketed EPROM.  AFAIK, the buggy ones
were all soldered directly to the PCB, making replacement a real drama.

I believe that if ATI7 shows an EPROM and DSP revision of 2.5 or later, the
problem will have been eliminated, but can't verify that immediately.

It isn't up to Dynalink.  The law says that if they've sold you a faulty
product, they MUST replace or repair it FOC.  Having said that, if you've
not yet noticed the pausing problem, it's unlikely that yours is so
affected.
