April 2010
Nikon MiniTT1 and FlexTT5: As most of you have seen, we have begun internal testing of the first Nikon prototypes. This work continues and will lead to broader testing in the coming weeks. Initial testing was done using the D3 but now we have begun compatibility work on other Nikon cameras. The beta process will begin on a limited range of camera models. The question of when we will go into production will be determined by how the testing process proceeds.
AC3 ZoneController: The testing process is underway and going well. There have been a few bugs to fix and retest; that is underway now. We are hoping for product to arrive in stores in late May. The expected suggested retail price in the US market is $69.95.
AC5 RF Soft Shield: Retail units of the AC5 will be available in April at a suggested retail price of $15.00, which is roughly the cost to manufacture. If you have purchased the FCC model FlexTT5 in the USA or Canada, and have not received an AC5 in the FlexTT5 box or via our promotion, you may still do so on our web site here. CE FlexTT5 owners should contact their distributor for information and availability.
AC7 RF Hard Shield: One of the slowest products in history, we know. There have been molding issues with the shield that have held this up. Beta users like the optimal umbrella positioning and ease of mounting. Range performance has met or exceeded expectations. Overall size has been an issue for some. Delivery should be May and the suggested retail price in the US will be $29.95.
