I would love to know what you think of the device and if any hardware changes need to make before design is finalized. The price is undermined yet as well, but it’s interested to hear what you guys think would be a fitting for it.
Mystrix 2 Ultra will be on sale along with existing Mystrix (1) Pro. But an upgrade path for Mystrix Pro owner to upgrade to Mystrix 2 Ultra will be provided in a limited time. More detail later this year.
