wow thats quick

[pushup]

i havent even seen the 650 for sale yet and theres a file , im impressed

[ufcwatcher]

Yeap I would like to test one of these receivers.

[johnvincent]

I just checked ebay, someone has them for 99 bucks, but they have no usb port, that kinda sucks..

[ufcwatcher]

Wow that is a bummer since I was going to get this for my nephew since he does not have internet at his house. He was just going to use a jump drive and download the bins at his school. It may have to be the CW700 then.

[LIVEUPDATE]

i thought that was the purpose as well to add new features that the 600s didnt have, at first i seen it was usb then it wasnt. that does bite...

[mr shady]

cant wait to read the 1st review on one!!!!

[pushup]

no usb then i wont test it , for 109 bucks you can buy 700s with usb geesh , whats the point 650 should be at 80 bucks then , hey its just my oppinion

[CsFTAForever]

Agreed..what is the point other than a new processor...NO USB...what was Captive Works thinking...

Cheers

[LIVEUPDATE]

i dont see many sales of this unit...the 700 will be the choice of many when all the 600s are gone.

[mr shady]
