But in this case its a machining problem and not design prob.

But when you are speaking about fact, what I see is thats the more expensive unit on the market will be more expensive because of the indispensable hydrophobic membrane and some research and development costs.
But perhaps the hydrophobic membrane will only be an option when got a better OPV.
I agree the membrane is indispensible.

Shame it wasnt on the original units - that would at least have prevented the resentment agaisnt forking out money to have one fitted. I recall early YBOD owners feeling the same resentment when APD asked them to pay to have backlit displays. Thats always the risk with new products..they mature and change quicker at the start of their lifecycle. Personally I bought Boris with this in mind and that has given me peace of mind
