Hand raised. I ordered mine sometime in November. Mostly because I've been
waiting a year and a half for something like SDB on the Amiga. I received it
in the mail on 2/26. I haven't had much time to play with it yet, but so far
I'm fairly impressed, with one exception and one minor nit to pick.

Exception:
I haven't figured out how (or if its possible) to continuously monitor 
register and/or variable contents while stepping thorough a program short of
issuing a command following each step.

Nit:
There should be a way to single step with a single keystroke instead of 
s <return> or t <return>. A macro, maybe? Haven't played with macros yet so
I don't know.

Anyway, just thought you should know to hang in there.
