High quality hardware. The joystick is well designed. The soft buttons function very well with a light touch. The PC interface and new design software is very good. The ability to design and import custom buttons is a definite plus.
Display contrast is a bit low.
Font displayed in software is not what you get on the MX-1000, however it still works well. I software fix is needed here. It would be nice to have more characters available for the buttons. The quality of the hardware is excellent. The finish on the case of the unit is good looking and practical.
