When I was preparing to add a third radar detector to my arsenal several months ago, I looked at others and concluded that for my use even without the ability to 'point to threats' and aside from VR's customer service, the V-1 stands alone, ...and at a significantly lower price. It doesn't get much better than that. YMMV.
Ding Ding Ding...we have a winner!!! It will be funny when all of the exclusive Belscort users, who never saw the arrows as useful, run out and buy a new Belscort with arrows because it is the latest craze.
Boy- i agree with that one. All those who boo hoo'd the arrows as just a fad, a non necessity, will be mighty grateful to have them and will sing their praises on high. I wonder how much xxxxx will charge for the addition of the arrows. I bet we are soon to find out.

Next we will see a new Belscort concealed display that....(drumroll please)....shows you more than just power on/off and alert. It might even have some arrows or something else of use on it.

I'm a long time V1 user/zombie. But, combine the arrows (gotta have 'em) with Belscort's GPS functions, I may bite.

I guess I don't see sufficient advantages to the GPS capability of the Belscorts to tempt me to give up the durability, overall functionality and customer support that VR offers. Mebee I'm wrong...
It might be worth more to others who do not have conventional GPS.

For me to switch to an escort at this current time in game.
Redline with...
Better q/t
Arrows
Bogey counter
At the minimal, let alone customer service and GPS blocking.

Re: February 25 2011 is less than 60 days away... What about the arrows?
Range of the Redline, with Arrows would be perfect. Added GPS would also be a plus.

from a legal standpoint, no. patents can only be extended if the company faced significant delays in releasing the product due to government regulation i.e. certain drugs taking up most of the 20 year period to undergo studies and tests before being made available to the public.
