>From phone. You guys in the developed world have resources for all the latest kit. I my country iRda is commonly used. In addition the CCR community worldwide often use iRda. It has a significant role to play at least for the next 10 years. Therefore I strongly argue for the continued support of iRda. Subsurface is not meant only for the divers with the latest kit.
