Well guys after much debate with some of the guhru's of the local club,
I have decided to give the 2.4 GHz a little more time to develope as we have
lost 5 aircraft this year due to equipment failure 3 on Futaba, 2 on Spektrum/JR
One of the Futaba's was on it's maiden flight, sad loss of a new 40% aircraft,
nothing was salvageable...$$$$$$$$$$$$
So it looks like I'll stay on Futaba PCM for a tad bit longer, got 2 of them, very
happy with both.

No worries Bill, even if you have decided to wait, rest assured this thread will most likely continue for a while
.
Joking aside, do what you feel is right. There are a few very good brands out there, and those include the two you mentioned above. Just learn some of the intracacies between the traditional and 2.4GHz technologies and you'll be fine. I have had one of the above brands for some time with great success.
Good luck, and keep us posted.
