I use them, and have one at my house. The biggest issue I have with M2 is that people mess up getting to the reset of the AGS mode.
With the M3 that is a separate button which is a big improvement. And that you can reprogram it via SD card is a big improvement. Try that with a XW! Overall its easier in some ways, more complicated in others. Jay peltz power On Oct 20, 2012, at 11:20 AM, Dave Palumbo wrote: > Howie, > > We have a couple of these out there now.
