Amazon lists the measurements of OOP as  2.00 x 9.12 x 6.12, which is nearly 
the same as your GOF but a bit thinner...BUT they also list the dimensions of 
the HC version of GOF as 2.22 x 9.30 x 6.3 and POA as 1.47 x 9.40 x 6.35, 
and we know that their height and width are actually the same.  So there's 
some wiggle room there, I guess we'll just have to wait and see!
