(In my case, it usually does not.) 2) If the answer to (1) is "Yes," has it been enough to stop you from using OMNIVIEW? 3) If you have seen the XEP-80's display, is it a lot better, or only marginally better? 4) Do you plan to switch to using an XEP-80 someday? I am asking these questions because I got into a discussion with Matt Ratcliff on DELPHI about OMNIVIEW and the XEP-80, and I wanted to know how you all feel about it.
