Doc i see what you mean the price of the 6700 in U.S dollar in U.K is $8582 in U.K pound its £5449 yes a lot you can buy new ftdx5000mp FOR THIS PRICE or even ftdx 9000 contest for £4850 uk pound how ever the point is and as well to many other who use the 5000a that most of us was thinking may be will be some update with the hardware /software etc since i do not see the 5000a or 3000 etc as ready product since there is some more issue that need to be sort out i like the flex very much have two flex 5000a and use them every day , i still see some issue and i don't think it will ever be sort out since this issue was long on old version ,i don't see how many in the UK WILL BUY THE 6700 since the economy is not good at all in the eu but good luck . vy 73 E.P g0uut

I loved my 5000 and am sad I won't be able to use the new release when it is ready... But that is the price of progress. In my opinion the 5000, 3000 and 1500 represent very mature systems and should continue on well into the future. Their price point makes them much more accessible. The way I look at it this shift will nearly double the user base of flex radios. I don't know the numbers of the new series radios sold but I would say it is very very high. I am sure the sale of many of the current radios has hurt flex's sales of those units... But I presume they expected that. It is an interesting phenomenon for sure. I wouldn't worry about the legacy products they are great... Much better the last year or so for sure. It seems you are mostly worried about the latest release being slow due to priorities being not there and I must say that has crossed my mind also. It does seem like flex as a company is a bit overloaded right now and I hope they are doing something to remedy that. It does seem the answer to a great number of questions here, yahoo and facebook etc seem to add to that perception which is unfortunate. Everybody seems stressed and overburdened; albeit excited. I bet that will get worse as we get closer to the end of Q412 but I hope I am wrong. I am betting on it...hi hi.
