Hi Scott,

Good to hear that the 119A is still available for now.  From what I've 
heard first-hand, real "A" chips are not easily found in the Asian market.

I don't think anyone would question that the "A" series is deprecated, at
this point. And, that's unfortunate since the "B" chips are clearly not a
drop-in replacement.
