R4 Delayed again

Just got word that the R4 release has been pushed back again. I am happy and sad at the same time. We have a job that was waiting for these and now we have to figure out a temporary fix because the client is definately sold on these units, so I am sad that we have to go without these for now.

On the other hand, I am glad that AMX is doing the difficult thing and not releasing a product with problems. (I really hope this is the case and not some screw up in materials acquisition or some legal dispute) I think I would rather explain that the remotes have been delayed instead of having to explain why they never work properly.

Just thought I'd share the news in case anyone else was expecting their remotes to show up in the next few days.

Jeff


P.S.
The new date I got was mid-Feb.

    R4 problems

    Hello, I am having some problems with an R4.
    The problem is that sometimes the R4 doesn't respond, for example if you push a button the button is not executed when you press another one the same problem and so on, suddenly he send a whole bunch of commands. It seems like he freezes now and then.
    In the configuration is an Iport included, could the iport module be a bottleneck for traffic between NI3100 and the remotes ? Problem of bandwidth ?
