Bad news is there's no SVX material. The good news is that it's coming!

I happen to think that is pretty awesome news! Thanks for letting us know.

Looks like a great website - it's a pity they want so much money for the information though. For the $2500 annual subscription you could buy every one of the service manuals.

Once they add the SVX section, I'd be tempted to buy the 72 hour subscription and then download the entire site onto my own webserver.

Why is there no Justy section?
