All it is, is just grey and orange plastic.
Why did they need to do this because they ran out of customers and want everybody to buy again.
Two thumbs down.
Going Vertex all the way

I wasn't aware Vertex actually has a controller ready for market. When was it released?

Thanks for the video. Looks like another month before we see it. I hope that giant box isn't their actual production model.

Now this one comes out at about the same price with a more functional powerbar and only one interface instead of three. Hopefully Neptune didn't rush this out the door to compete. Now I just gotta convince the wife why it's needed when I've done without one for years.
heh, we get 1-2 order a day that leave comments like "do NOT include invoice in box" I guess unlike you, they would rather hide it for the wife.

John, why not tell us how you really feel? Don't hold back

Colour is irrelevant, it could have been pink for all I care. Ok, maybe not pink... :-)

They did this because like every other item know to man, there is always room for improvement. Technology advances as do the products.

It's a two way street, she has to let me know when she wants to buy stuff too. In the end we both usually get what we want without the fighting. She didn't mind that I put a $200 light bulb order in with you yesterday so she not completely unreasonable.

Can we get confirmation that the double junction probes will be compatible with the now "Classic" units?
