Just a quick point,
I do hear less and less good things about 3W these days. Seems to me it was their market share to loose, and they did. Remember when Nintendo owned the world of home videogame consoles? The got somewhat pompous, and arrogant and it wasn't long before Sony just blew by them. It was Ninetendo's to loose, and boy O boy did they.
I think it's anyones market, now.
If the other manafactures would step up, provide first class service and "right now" parts availabilty, you could just like your favorite brand/flavor with COMPLETE confidence.
I'm sure the next time I find a swearheart deal on a ZDZ 50NG I'll swoop and buy it. The Double Vision Bipe is talkin' to me...
