- But when will this f**** product come out? Clarion originally said
- they would have it out by December 1992, It's almost Dec 1993 and
- according to their Australian distributor they don't expect it until
- March 94. Talk about vaporware! In any case the market has moved so
- quickly that what was supposed to be pretty flash in 1992 looks
- pretty ordinary in 1994. In the past 18 months I bet they haven't
- sold too many version 2.1's. My frustration is that I think it is
- (2.1) a good product. If they had only improved it incementally
- and DELIVERED they and the rest of us who use the product would
- have been better off.
