Message	I agree it costs $$ to play and it is indeed Passion but assigning Z1 as the sole distributor hurts all of us. They have the talent to innovate I am sure they have the talent to distribute. Why not sell the mold to a US company with patent rights and produce in the US ??? I plan on getting the 2+2 if and when available just think there could have been better options from a distribution standpoint to keep the costs down. Killed on the exchange rate is part of the equation but I am sure this could have been made in the US alot cheaper.
