Randolph and I exchanged notes offline and concluded his prototype C3000 has PA8500 v2.0 CPU (and newer elroys than mine). I can't reproduce the problem with a v2.3 chip. I should be able to upgrade his CPU to v2.3 and we'll see if the problem persists. Lots of bugs in pre-2.3 chip revisions. (BTW, does that answer your question Helge? :^/) grant
