February 25 2011 is less than 60 days away... What about the arrows?

Nobody cares about the arrows except Mike Valentine and his fanboy posse. February 25th will come and go with only a yawn in the industry.

I should save this post. For future reference of course!

I'll mark his word because I'm pretty sure he's right. Somebody wake me up if I sleep through it!

If this is the case then it will be a shame, I have wonderd what other companies would make the arrows look like.

The real question is how is this thread going to differ from any of its countless predecessors? What new information is there to bring to the table? None that I'm aware of.

Everyone's talking about the arrows. What about the bogey counter? It's saved me a couple of times in PA.

Even if the patent expires, I've become so used to V1's reliability that it would take some extraordinary change in technology/sensitivity to make me buy another brand. V1 FTW!

VR's website is fraught with grammatical(&other) issues... just an FYI if you didn't look elsewhere on the site.

If the issue date of this patent was Jan 21, 1992 wouldn't that mean that it expires Jan 21, 2012? Not 2011?
