Hi Tim;


When I ordered mine, they were estimating a 6 to 8 week shipping time

and it arrived in about 10 days. I have no idea why there is such a

discrepancy between the estimate and actual shipping.


HTH..

I was asked that I not post the price I was quoted for the camera,

but it's about a grand, as 

Milton had estimated earlier.  As for why it takes months to get? 

So far, I don't know how 

long it's really going to take, but it probably has to do with

limited production runs and 

quality control (a good sign that it's not mass-produced).  Also

good, because it's a research 

instrument, not a webcam.  


For the time being, I can keep using my Aplux webcam with Astro

IIDC, at least.


best,

-Tim.

Tim,


Do you mind if I ask how you paid for the PGR Flea and why it

takes months to get it?
