OK i'm really intrested in these now :P just one thing! Is the HPS40 worth the extra price tag? The big advantages i can see are the ability to set the triger level, a faster sample rate, and the pc connection (bmp download only though). The other perks are a larger and back lit lcd and it comes with a case. Is that worth doubling the price? any thought?

And just to top of the confusion why dont i throw a few more into the mix. There are several made by Extech (exetech multiscope 381285, or 381275, or 381265. They include scopes (not quite as good as the vellemans) but they also have a multimeter with a bunch of functions like a your standard dc and ac voltage and current but also capacitance,frequency, temprature, logic analyser, and a few other little goodies. ALSO they have a built in function generator. Are these things any good? Sounds like it could kill quite a few birds with one big *** stone.

PLS I think we really need advice on what the HELL we should do!
