| Upgrade for current 4500 owners? I just bought my 4500NV last year, now I see they have a bluetooth model. Are they offering a upgrade for their top of the line meter? I am going to be very dissapointed if I paid $350 for this thing and Kestrel has no upgrade path in place for owners of this model. The reason I never logged the data before was that although the Kestrel is a great meter, the outdated system they were using to transfer data (com port or a com port emulator for usb transfer) hasnt been used by electronic mfg's in the last 10 years. In fact, the last 2 devices I owned that used com port emulation was a dive computer that I bought in 2002, and a steering wheel controller I bought in 2001. Why Kestrel would offer that in a flagship product in 2009 boggles my mind. Regardless, I hope we arent left out in the cold after spending that much money on a flagship product. |
