Default WxWorx is shipping, looking for first feedback

Anyone have one of the first units? WxWorx website is stating they are now
shipping. Looking for some firsthand reports.

I gave up on Garmin's GDL-49 (tactically useless), and Control Vision
(transponder interference problems with some KT-76 transponders and flaky
downloads in some areas of the country). Looks like WxWorx will meet my
needs, but wondering if anyone with one of the first units shipping has any
comment...

It is very refreshing to see a company with some business smarts (chose the
PROVEN XM sat broadcast system as the data carrier, won't disappear
overnight like the MerlinWx guys) has produced a useful product at a
reasonable price (non-cert portable WxWorx receiver is about 1/10th the cost
of the WSI non-cert product!!!) I am really excited about this new system,
and would love to hear from any current users.

Garmin decided to go with WxWorx for their new "Gucci" G-1000 wonder-box
(but refuse to address application on the 430/530...)

TIA,

Mark
