I have had my AmTrac for aobut 6 months, and just changed from the
'old' version to the new version about 2 months ago.  It is a very
sturdy device and comfortable to work with.
The new version is very much nicer than the earlier version, which
had small buttons near the top edge of a rather squarish box.  The
internals of teh new one are exactly the same as the earlier one.
This is a good example of where a good ergonomic design really 
improved the product.
