I use a tiny micro switch on the lower corner of the left side of the 
calc.                         ___

 \___Switch (Up is fast, down slow)

The switch is small, all black, and does not interfere with the sliding 
cover. it is mounted directly to the circuit board and I normaly don't 
use the 1 pf capacitor. I'll add it if you want though. The wires 
themselves actualy create a little capacitance, just enough to act as 
the 1 pf cap. I'll install it anyway of course. just say what you want. 
I'll check the link port and replace it if required. I have a sub 
assembly from a ROM 8 TI-85 that died horibly!  (=

I was going to use it, but I may not be required.
