We saw a protottype 7lbs radial for the meg at Inner Space. Essentially the same can design as the CIS but without the Hydrophobic walls, this increases it's volume.
I do like the idea of being able to recover from a complete flood. I have deliberatley fully flooded Tom's meg with the CIS canister in it about 4 or 5 times in the pool and managed to get all the water out, leaving the solenoid a little damp, but still functional and nothing that couldn't be taken care off later.
