Even with no guarantee that it would ever come? Why? How much cheaper is it compared to the RMM?

Unless the difference is more then a couple hundred, I say If u can get one from rmm now, go for it. I got mine from them last dec and paid 1650 + 80 shiping. Total wait time was 2 weeks from the time I talked to Blair at rmm to the time it arrived at my door. Good luck in finding one.

According to TMenineering - RMM is in the same boat now. I just guess this part has been discontinued - if someone can find anyone who actually has this part in stock ready to ship - I'd go for it - even if it meant spending a couple hundred more.

Did you contact RMM and ask if they have or can get any?

No - but Todd at TMEngineering told me he's spoken to them and they are in the same boat as TM. I guess I could check myself - but based on TM's rep here I assumed he wouldn't flat out lie to me about it., just to keep the sale for himself.

As the old saying goes, "you got nothing to lose by asking" worse thing Blair at rmm can say is "we can't get any" Never know till you call
