I finally gave up weeks ago and bought a Pronto. Couldn't be happier. The Pronto exceeds all of my expectations. Not only is it easy to program with Prontoedit but the large number of people already using the Pronto makes for lots of different ideas on how to use it, lots of different buttons/graphics and a lot support from other owners. So the release is still weeks away and then you still have to wait for the PC editing software and then the bugs to get worked out as they are found and then..... I am only sorry that I didn't order the Pronto two months earlier. After reading Daniel's review it didn't even give me a glimmer of regret that I didn't wait for the MX-1000.
