When they do I think the prices will be much more reasonable. I will then
definitely consider one.

I'm holding out until they produce one that doesn't use proprietary
batteries.

An ACK support person told me (via E-mail) that they already have a
406Mhz version of their popular D-cell ELT, but they're waiting until
the FAA makes the ELT replacement a hard requirement. He didn't go into
details, but I suspect they think the market won't be big enough until
the FAA mandates the replacement.
