>... but the plan is to knock this out as soon as possible -- you guys have been kept waiting for long enough.

Amen! But the Empeg experience is all about patience. 1.5 years on a waiting list, another year for tuner, who knows how long for VR.

If it helps knock things out faster, when a product has frequent updates, the customer gets very excited about this. Take the Audiotron as an example. It's a simple box, difficult to use, and buggy. But there's a lot of excitement about it because every month you have an update with new features. That sells many units.

My friends ask me if I've done anything to my Empeg or if there's anything new. "No" is the only answer I have been able to give for a year.

I'm really looking forward to 2.0.. get to it guys, you're doing great!
