T-T has produced a radio with excellent firmware which appears to 
be clean and as bug-free as any radio out there.  You're reading old 
posts, or reading too much into the current ones.

You're assessment is not valid.

This has nothing to do with price.  Look at the computer and it's 
software that's sitting on your desk for goodness sake.

There were some early issues.  They've been taken care of.  You're 
waiting for no reason ...
