Dang....I just called the 800-THE-SHACK and the rep told me the first shipment
was gone in less than a week. She says they do not take pre-orders/payments of
the unit. Next batch due on/around Sept 29.

Here's a post from Strong Signals that has a better date than the

i thought the display looked very cramped as compared to my 250D, and no,
I am not a rat shack hater. I have a 2004 and pro-43 which I love, so
they have been the recipient of some of my funds over the years.

just trying to see if this radio has any advantages (other than the
9600baud) that would appeal to me.

Same character display as my Pro-95. Obviously for a scanner this priced,
some sort of better LCD screen would be nice..
