It will be interesting to see how this product shakes out now compared to their last production run.

It's good to see that they have taken the criticism and implemented changes, but I still don't see how this can favorablly compare to the Keywiz Eco No Solder which offers more inputs for less money.

It's nice to have choices.  A 16 input module should only be $9.95.  I would like to have something like this for a ONE player system.  But again, this should only be $9.95!

I agree with you about the lower price point. I think with its limited number of inputs, the unit should be alot cheaper than they are advertising.

You can often get them pretty cheaply on E-bay (new), if you really want one.

So, are we going to see a review of the new model?
