This is a big event. You would have expected RS to waste no time coming out with it, or at least Air China ordering a lot to be made.

It was listed on ebay for almost 300.00. Nice model, wish they would make these easier for all of us to own.

I know this is too much to ask for, but do you mind taking a snapshot, just curious to see what it looks like. Thanks...

Not the optician, but I'll genuinely need to get my ears checked, I have had a level of hearing loss for since I can remember, but I have notced it has got worse recently.

It can be quite embarrassing at times, not to mention isolating

A guy my age shouldn't be having problems like that!

Dang! I was out rowing today and I was being shouted things from the shore, quite near by, and I couldn't even make that out. I had to stop completely just to try and hear the best I could!

Anyway, the Olympics??

Bah, until I'm in it for Rowing or in the Winter Games for Curling, I 'aint interested!

Actually I should have used the term cousin company as PHX is not really affiliated with Gemini...
