What a surprise. There are some nice features on the new screens but

the speeds and altitudes are already present in the Club vario. Taking

away features that you guys already sold is not cool. I did not power

up my vario yet but based on the manual on your website when I bought

the vario I expected these features to be there. Now if for some

reasons I decide NOT to upgrade to XC version I am going to be missing

the features I already bought. Another thing that bothers me a little

bit that you specified 3 versions at first and now after some people

bought into it you say no we will only have 2 versions and buy the way

the version that was supposed to cost $1700 in August now costs $2250

since there is no other version, some people may not be very happy

about.



I am also not certain based on your pricing what it will now cost to

upgrade to XC for existing owner of the Display and CNv.


Holy moly...

Nothing is "going away" that I know of. More likely is a typo or something in need of clarification....

This is the 2013 lineup. 2014 could well be different. You didn't think we were going to put rate gyros and accelerometers on board just to do whizzy cruise/climb switching, did you? We aren't going to be finished with this platform Mar 31, we're really just gettin' started.
