Re[2]: Valentine One upgrade?

[dean_ferrera@idpump.com]

I have seen at least 3 tests done over the years(c&d, etc.).  The V1 comes out 
so far on top it is ridiculous.  Although the most recent one, Sept maybe.  I 
think the V1 came in second by a point or something(I think it was do to the 
esthetics or ergonomics).  Maybe K40 has a very expensive alternative, but I'm 
not really sure how good it is.
