Paul,
I think everything you have said lately about this entire matter is right
on the mark. A new board is a certainty on the BN models sooner or
later. The price of the BN is already significantly higher than the
PacMate so I think PDH would be crazy to raise it again.

I really don't think this will raise the price of the bn if these
features are added. I don't really know where people get this idea. I
suppose there might be a little less of a profit margin, but the market
will keep these units from different manufacturers close in price. If the
price of the bn gets too high because of these innovations, people will
just buy the cheaper packmate or perhaps the one from alva or whatever is
out there at the time.
I don't particularly care if the unit plays in stereo, but there are those
who do. If a new board should come out, and I think this is almost a
certainty, you can decide to upgrade or not just like with the last board.
There are those on this list who haven't even upgraded to keysoft 5.1. It
is like I tell people all of the time. If what you are using works for you
and you are happy with it, don't upgrade.

The price of this equipment is going up and Al is right--recording will make
it more expensive. You can now record on the pacmate and a few other pda
products.
I think pulse data should decide on a powerful and versatile new board.
Remember, people paid to upgrade boards a few years ago.
I want to see some stereo and recording capability. I also want a processor
that will be fast enough to do rapid gps calculations.
Usb is a must.
Just my opinion,
Judy

All these prospects would be wonderful, but they would also add to the
already high price of this equipment.
