the only difference is in the wireless , other than that they are identical iv'e had mine for about 6 weeks ( hb04 ) and it works fine . given one niggle , the update of the lcd can at times , be slightly delayed but give it half a sec to settle and it's fine .
iv'e not had any problems , the wireless range is limited , so what i did was to place the dongle in a plastic box to the side of the machine nearest the operator , and ran a usb extention to the pc , the MDI has a indent click which is annoying at times , i might open it and see if it can be removed , but i am really just picking at straws overall i'm satisfied with the unit i'm just about to obtain another , so their not that bad !
