It does look very attractive and seems to offer a lot of good features. They have one for sale on ebay for a Buy it Now price of $450. That's way too much for me even though it offers some very nice features. I'd be willing to pay around $200, preferably less in kit form for one that offers basic generation without all the memories and nice case, etc. The unit up for bid still hasn't reached minimum reserve at $255.
