| I'll have them end of May according to the vendor. As I understand the story he's making a new design and he's going to begin offering them directly to customers first ahead of supplying vendors like us. I asked him why and his response is it's so he can trouble shoot problems with customers. On the surface this seems reasonable and peronally I'm glad because until he does that I wouldn't feel comfortable offering them to "you".
My take on this is no matter how badly I want them to fill existing order, it's better for the impatient few to be his guinea pigs instead of my customers. From back during the wild west, the saying came about that "Leaders are the ones with arrows in their backs." Thus, you can a)wait for me to have them in stock, b) play guinea pig for him, or c) get something else.
Personally, if you don't have a governor, this is a good time to tweak the throttle/pitch curves so once you do install one (and there are many on the market), you have a decent set of failsafe curves to fall back on. If you already have something and just want to change (like BillM), a little delay is inconsequential. Ultimately, in my opinion, a few weeks delay while he uses his customers as beta testers isn't worth the grief because "my" time is worth something and I don't work for free . . . unless it's for Audacity Models
