I'm looking forward to some actual results from someone using the unit. According to the original schedule, it should have been released by now. I'm curious as to whether or not it actually has been.

I would bet they didn't make their release deadline, just like they didn't with their cap and rotor kit.

I'd rather they be late with it, than release it with bug.
