And here is their response....

We appreciate your opinion, we know that the market is screaming for the
integrated look. We hope in the future to produce something to your liking
and at a resonable cost to the consumer. Thanks for taking time with us.
I think if they got some more emails that over time they might get the point..... :D :D :D
