I think that these are a brand new product line for Rodime. The review
may have been based on a pre-release unit.

The person helping you on the phone should have mentioned my comment
above if it is indeed the case. Other than that, seems ok. 

Question: after all of the known problems with Rodime recently, what
prompted you to invest your dollars as a "quality control test site"? I
didn't read the review; was it really that glowing? I would have to let
many others prove any Rodime products reliable before I would even
consider them for anything. And I learned a long time ago about trying
to save a few dollars on sub-standard merchandise -- it ALWAYS ends up
costing more. 

Any thoughts on this from other netters?
