ALL NEW: Parts not interchangeable with previous design OR the old one was so bad we had to trash it and start over.

IT’S HERE AT LAST! Rush job; nobody knew it was coming.

FIELD-TESTED: Manufacturer lacks test equipment.

YEARS OF DEVELOPMENT: We finally got one that works.

BREAKTHROUGH: We finally figured out a way to sell it.

FUTURISTIC: No other reason why it looks the way it does.

MAINTENANCE-FREE: Impossible to fix.

PERFORMANCE PROVEN: Will operate through the warranty period.
