This has been on the cards for well over a year now, and in my opinion the functions it performs has been watered down during this time.

I ordered one from flightstore back in Jan - with a launch date of March.

I emailed Saitek for a release date but no reply - in the end I cancelled as the functions flightstore were advertising were not actually to be included in the final released version.

There was a video knocking around from the beggining of the year showing the new version in use - they are also displaying it at the 2009 UK flight sim convention next month.

Regards

Jon
