Making a good louver is not that simple... I know bad louvers for chinese el-cheapo softboxes.

Manufacturing a striplight mask is almost a no-brainer.

I am not sure how a PLM would support a grid/louver.

Also, getting low production silk screening at an affordable price is not as no brain as you may think.

Haven't you heard? It's a firmware update for the cyber commander and einstein which enables TTL. ;)

Hey, I can dream right?

Yeah, I've been contemplating upgrading my AB800's and getting a cyber commander..
Hope the announcement comes out ahead of the product!
I'll be really bitter if I upgrade only to find out a month later there's something better coming soon! :)

Well, regardless of what is coming and when, remember we have a 60 day return policy.

The most important of three new products will be in stock and shipping in April. We're building them now, but don't want to give details until they are built and tested. You can have a product all designed and ready to go, then find one little part from a vendor doesn't fit or doesn't work.

Expect some announcements and details in a week.

Oh wow!
Very excited! I have so much upgrading I've been planning...
(and returns aren't an option since I have to pay so much in shipping and taxes :( (Canada))

When you say Major do you mean like a new flash unit or a light modifier? throw us a bone, can't wait to see what you come up with.
