One can only hope that these recorders come to somewhat of a realistic
price. *The retail of these units we must use is a rediculous sum to
pay for a piece of equipment so basic. *I can only hope some
electronics entrepeneur with the assets comes up with a piece of gear
that will undersale the fat cats, but who am I kidding? *Politics will
squash such a rebel.

My prior post regarding affordability supports the fact that the Fly
with CE is VERY affordable. I was not referencing its cost at all,
but the cost of the other devices. I do carry an Ipaq with freeware
and a blue tooth GPS, great system. As far as the "resignation" that
recorders must be as expensive as they are, I can only think how
totally inisde the box that resignation and thinking are. Tim, your
offerings are superb and you have always offered top to bottom of all
things soaring, while catering to the frugal fliers such as I with the
same vigor as you offer to the "higher end" pilots. Continuing to
present affordable products will open the doors to many more sailplane
pilots, a thing we must do. Thank you.
