Is this (from Deep6's Nov 23, 2021 Facebook post) still the plan other than the release dates? It also said Tech Lite would be free to all owners and Trimix a $75 upgrade.

No, clearly. The dates were optimistic*. The specs still seem to be OK. 2022 was all beta testing. I have no official info, I'm just going by the various threads, especially the later posts that supercede any earlier posts, especially regarding dates.

*the dates may be accurate for availability to beta testers, but not to the general public.

What is the differentiator for this computer? I like Deep6 and I dive with their regs, but I don't see what this brings to the table that isn't already available at similar cost from the other manufacturers? I always like to see more entrants into a space, bringing innovation and lowering costs, but I don't see what sets this apart from the others available now.

A dc sub $400 that can do gas mixes and has user definable gf's?

If Landon’s responses are delayed, please know that he’s nose down in medical obligations but he’ll come up eventually.

That isn't apparent on their site. It still says nitrox computer with no mention of other gas mixes. As I said earlier, it makes more sense that being the case.

I'm an iPhone user, I've never downloaded or installed a 'Droid program. Really really easy, worked flawlessly. The new features are brilliant. Thank you Landon !!!!!
