I called today to get additional information. If I remember the discussion, there are approximatley 200 of the model 10 in user's hands and about 40 of the 20's out in the field. They will substitute a 100M disk for both of the units for an additional $1500.00. They have a "spare-in-the-air" type maintenance arrangement (sorry, I didn't ask the cost on this). They were quite comfortable with my request for refs. Until I saw the blurb I had never heard of them.
