yikes, $4000 and then $2000 :o, damn.....guess I will still look to the PDA deal

nickgregory:
I tend to agree with some other opinions that I have heard....let all the gear sluts get this thing first, then let some other manufacturers come out with their versions.  Last thing I want to be is a $2000 guinea pig.

creekfreak:
I know what you mean, I did spend close to $1500 for a da-p1, but when I bought it, it was a proven pievce of high end gear....these prices suprise me coming from SD, but the features are nice.

F.O.Bean:
