from  what I heard from our customers (I have not had a unit to test 
myself, 
and  do not have any comparative data), many if not most of these units  
have  frequency jumps, and are not nearly as good as the Thunderbolt  
(which is 
quite  good, and very well documented in the Time Nuts  Archives).

If you plan to buy these new, there is apparently also an  issue with  
meeting delivery schedules, and having (hand-selected)  sample/evaluation 
units  
perform much better than actual  mass-production units.

Hi Said
 
Thanks very much for your comments, it was mention of the frequency  jumps 
that concerned me from my archive searches.
 
I certainly couldn't afford to buy them new at list price but I do  have a 
couple on their way, one of each connector orientation and  supposedly new, 
and the fact there is just one of  each already had me wondering if they 
might have originated as  samples.
>From what you say it sounds like that might be a bonus:-)
