Comment
This unit will not do any better than any of the others for a very simple reason: It has too many buttons.
They might think that making it sync without a PC is good but it means the user has to learn ANOTHER interface. If you could configure from a browser (any browser) then you have to learn nothing new. It sync with BlueTooth or Wifi or cable USB, just like dozens of other devices that the user already knows about.
Quite apart from the fact that it is geared to a USA only network, they forgot the 1st Law: Keep it Simple Stupid.
