At some point there will be interest, but not sure how soon.  Remote power
would also be nice.  Make sure he gives you the box with no firmware password
(or gives you the firmware password) if you take it.  If you still don't want
to take it, someone here might be willing to take it off your hands. :)  Jake
Burkholder lives in Canada, but I think he is in Toronto, still not that far
away though.
