Scubapro T-Force vs Aqualung/SeaQuest Pro QD

[RJRamso]

I baught a complete diving equipment set on one of my local diveshops. It came with the Scubapro T-Force BCD, but at the time they didn't have it in stock at the store, but was supposed to maybe get it within 2 weeks. Now they won't be getting it before the end of May. I can instead get a Aqualung/SeaQuest Pro QD, but then I have to pay 1500 Norwegian Kroner (equal to $200+) inbetween.
Is the Pro QD really that much more than the T-Force? Is the Pro QD a better BCD than the T-Force?
Waiting till May isn't a option for me, so I'm thinking of maybe cancelling the BCD and get a BP/W if I don't get a better deal on the Pro QD.

I saw them both (live), and I ended with a ProQD (i3). In my opinion, the built quality and comfort difference is huge between them.

Thanks for your opinion!
I've heard that the weight system on the ProQD is alot better than the T-Force.
I think my choice was the ProQD and not the i3.
Anyone know the pricedifference between the two?

The basic ProQD has normal valves and inflation mechanism.

The i3 version has flat valves, and a special inflation mechanism (a lever on your left, under the pocket, with up movement for inflate, down movement for deflate). I find it nice (it deflates simultaneously from all valves, and is very comfortable. There were many hot discussions here regarding its safety, so you may find plenty to read.
