    It would be nice if they didn't wait until after my STI-R. I still have to run my 9960G in cities with redlight cameras.

    I just checked one of the Canadian distributers website and they said it will be available in Q2 of 2010. Can't wait to see how much this will cost!

    If your police use K band still for speed measurment. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY. THEY DO NOT and i repeat DO NOT Work as advertised. I will bet my left testicle on this. Truelock and autolearn does not work as advertised.
    I absolutley can assure you its BS.
    THEY DO NOT AND WILL NOT identify a new signal present like the manual and the advertising suggests.

    How do i know? I own one and drive past K band mobile Gatso's every day and they simply remain silent.
    It is a gimmick.
    I'm an avionics tech and have tested every variable that could possibly be the cause to this. There are enough false alerts in a ridiculously large lock out radius to lock the whole K band.

    But i'm sure the experts at bell will fix this along with the ridiculously large lock out radius.

    ^I was more interested in the integrated automated camera database, thanks for the heads up though.

    I'm an avionics tech and have tested every variable that could possibly be the cause to this and they just lock out the whole band every time.

    Dont believe the hype it is all horse ****. I promise you.
    Again, you're extrapolating your Gatso results to North American police K band. These are two totally different levels of signal strength. TrueLock can be beat, no doubt, but here in the US, it works pretty well.

    I'm sure it does bro but i guess when it they advertise it as being an Australian and Eurpean version. They should be built to identify Australian and Eurpean types of enforcement. Thats all my gripe is.
    I believe it would work much better just by reducing the lock out radius.
    Half a mile is about 800m, i'm thinking a 200m or preferbly a 100m lock out radius would make this model work sooo much better.

    Your first post was warning everyone that TrueLock doesn't work at all. This last post was about how you think Belscort can improve TrueLock for your market. Neither of those statements can be extrapolated to the Canadian market.

    I appologise, i should be more specific.
    It works very very poorly in the Australian/European region.
    Where it was first marketed.

    I understand this thread is about its Canadian release.
    But i was just letting others know who live outside of North America that it does not work very well in our region.
