    Now that puts us in a bit of a dilemma, as I was gonna get a CDJ around Christmas.
    Hmmm....

    They released any of the prototypes over here yet?

    Yup they piss on them apparently, Allie, unless you want to spend double, just stick with the CDJ

    Although to be fair.....why bother spending all that money on a CD Deck? You wont use all those features, I would get something much cheaper and spend the dosh on something else.

    Get a 500 over an 800, cheaper, and you wont miss the features that you lose out on.

    There are a few USA sites where you can place a pre-order for $999....at todays exchange rate that is just under £600...not too bad for a bit of kit like that if you ask me

    i still think they wont beat the pioneer cd decks. the beauty of them is the jog wheel, and its accuracy over a moving weighted platter.....which the technics has....

    plus the pioneer will be even more establihed by the time these finally come out, which will probs be 2nd/3rd quarter 2004.

    yeah but everyone knows what 1210s are like and almost anyone who does will want a technics cd deck to go with them. The 1210 is established enough to make sales on this baby outway pioneer tenfold.

    bet loads of cdjs come on ebay when these are out
