Maybe so, but I've found the P800s to be incredibly flakey.
Performance wise, fine - no problems - but the p800s have failed more
times than I can say.  Just transporting machines with them to
customers have been enough to kill the controller.  A slight knock
here, a slight knock there - blam.  Can't say the same about the
888ELP - we've shipped several and have been absolutely rock solid.
