I'll be buying one of these at the end of the year. They are pretty special. Played with it quite a lot at Blackpool In Feb and have been umming and ahhing ever since as whether or not to get one. They are a lot of money, a bit too much really and it is only worthwhile getting one if you have the stage work to justify the payout. I do, just. If you don't save your money.
My main fear with buying one of these is that it uses electronic technology that will be superceded in a short while. The fact that the price has risen by £300 in the last two years (Partially due to the collapse of the pound to the euro) seems wrong, generally technology of this kind should go down in price as components become cheaper. I have a horrible fear that the day after I pay out all the money someone will come along with the same product for half the price.
Anyhow, they are lovely objects that work beautifully and from what I hear are very reliable.
