sudoku 3

with the constraint that each 9-box position, eg center square, contains no duplicates, are there sudoku solutions? Equivalently, four orthogonal planes through each point of a 3x3x3x3 four-dimensional hypercube contains the numbers 1 through 9. Hmm, it looks like there are actually six orthogonal planes (4 choose 2).
