Hi Gary, We simply do not have umlimited staff and do not want to get ahead of ourselves by releasing details too early. We have a lot of projects in the fire. :-) The KAT500 is under active development right now, but putting more details at this time is premature. What I can say is that the first unit is a compact desktop ATU as I described in my earlier email. If a remote version comes out, it will be after this unit.
