ON the truck??? Does anyone have any pictures, links, or info?
Is the 15.4 software more in line with what us 10.2 lovers have been looking
and waiting for for the last 5 years? How is it better than its predecessors?
enquiring minds want to know !!!

please do

So far, sounds like a nice piece of hardware. Can't wait to see one and will reserve judgment either way until I do.
I am more curious about 15.4. Does it restore any of what many of us have missed since 10.2? What other improvements can we expect?
Thanks.

New verus

Thanks from Scott

No Verus Ultra?

Verus Edge Looks real nice .I wonder if the advent of that Maxi Cyst had anything to do with Snappy engineering scrambling back to the drawing board and skip releasing a Verus Ultra several years back? From what I read the Maxi Cyst Pro's add on usb scope's software disappoints so far and doesn't look like a worthy competitor to anyone's scope software out there yet.

sunlight

Nice clean office !!

[jburiel]

Bluetooth Scope??

Is the Scope Module wireless?? Does it have a Zoom in Function as like Pico??

Does the unit itself provide at least one HDMI port on it's side like any Bottom feeder $300 laptop offers or do you still need to drop an extra grand or two for an optional docking station to get HDMI connection in order to hook one up to to a big screen TV or projector. I believe, Docking Stations once had their day in the sun a couple decades ago , to cradle heavy Byzantine 2 or 3 inch thick tablets. I recall The Ford WDS had to be locked into it's corded cart mounted docking station or the battery would be dead in short order.Was pretty High Tech at the time.
Since a lot of people have Blue tooth Smart phones , surprised with the wireless VCI Snappy didn't develop a multifunction VERUS with up to 4 VCI's,for shop use and load a smart phone Apt and techs use smart phone , kindle HD or cheap window tablet as a virtual Verus so the shop's genuine Verus can just stay put in it's docking station as a mothership kind of server until the need for the use of the scope, then everyone knock the living sh@t out of their own Smart phones or a cheap windows tablet instead of dropping your shop's pricey $10K Verus. LMFAO

One thing I am a little disappointed in is the missing directional buttons the pro had as pictured below. Touchscreens are nice, but these do a better job on some things.
