Finally got around to playing with the 'Products Emulator' which simulates the operation of a unit on your PC but sadly, this section of their site is old & a bit out dated.  The newest units date back a couple years.  I chose to Emulate the Elite 5 & all the menus operate just as the real unit would.  I'll leave it installed on my PC & bring it to the seminar in case anyone wants to try it out.

We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.

I want to stay as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all kinds of things you can't see from the center.

People aren’t supposed to look back. I’m certainly not going to do it anymore.”

awesome night....nice hats and visors...great info that I'm excited to put in use and program my FF..
Thanks

I do want to greatly thank everyone who was able to make it out to the seminar!  Great meeting new friends and connecting with old ones again!  Hope everyone was able to take away a little useful information.

Craig & Amy, thank you for the birthday gift!

Craig, do shoot me over any pictures you shot.  Thanks!  Congrats to our three winners!
