The production version ECU seems to be a good improvement on the prototype design. But there have have been big problems with the assembly of the uniforms over in China - and hence the long delays (its now supposed to be Feb./March 07 delivery timeframe).
IF there's any good news out of this it seems to be that a few countries are also interested in the uniforms now, and at least one has placed a large order for their national police force. So maybe that will help to unblock the production bottle-neck.

I'm still waiting on my bought and paid for evaluation set. If you know this guy well, perhaps you could give him a kick in the ass for keeping me waiting this long. The uniform was to be used for trials last summer, with an eventual order of 50 or more sets, but I'm unlikely to go with them any longer.
It's starting to look like Propscam all over again.
