Yes, I think it is awsome as well. They look exactly the same as before. They haven't changed in apperance in the 2+ years I have been a dealer. But they did drop in power when they first became programmable and now it seems it has been restored. I have not yet tried programming them with the USB cable yet but have checked, they still come with the same default settings as before and I see no need to risk changing the settings.
As for the MP3 I`ll believe it when I see it.
In January I was told they would be ready in april. In april they told me june, in june they told me august, in august they said october. I have delayed several sea orders this year trying to have them included. But still no MP3 yet. They are encouraging dealers to preorder them which I have done 3 times and cancelled 3 times so my sea orders would ship. I guess when they are finally on the water I will believe they are released. In private discussion with Philip I was stated there would be no public talk of the MP3 until it is released as it only leads people on to believe they are available when they are not. Rumours are we can order some in a few weeks. As stated I have done this three times already, my prediction is Christmas. I am also a little concerened about pre-ordering. If an official release comes and they are on sale, it will probably be less then I paid for them as I have seen in the past with the MP1, The shrinker. new batteries, etc. I recall when the MP1 came out buying a dozen or so from their website as they were cheaper then they were in my pricelist. It seems recently everytime I order something my price has gone up and their website price stays the same or goes down. Its getting a little discouraging lately. Anyway I have probably said more then I should already, so I`ll end it here and not comment on the MP3 any further.
