Ok, here's my question: What's different about this vs the normal jetpack? The article didn't really seem to say, just the implication that it's maybe more comfortable and has some kind of built in compatibility with a shearwater dive computer? Am I missing something? Because dollars to donuts, this costs $500-1000 more than the standard

Well, if you save 15lbs of theoretical weight they can sell 15 lbs of gear and a training course. And it will be for the Avelo and to use the scooter and the integration so you can see your scooter battery data integrated into the your Shearwater. And they will be able to sell you the transponders.... and spare batteries.
 
As I have said before, we'll all see how this works out. Seems like some expectations have already been exceeded.
Expectations in my mind have been blown away! I can’t believe they have survived this long without real consumer interest. They have deep pockets indeed.
