This whole thread is getting stupid and I'd hope the people involved would 
desist from this O/T drivel.

If you want a switch go to the shop, hand over some money and buy one... Like 
every one else does and they're perfectly happy with their purchase.

The O.P. is not going to change the world and quite frankly the 
designer/manufacturer of the product knows a lot more about the subject then 
they do....
