Your English is better than my Swedish, so here goes.

I'd stick to the revoulution, it works well, its tried and tested and it's fast enuff unless you can afford to shoot x number of thousand rounds per game.

The HALO is'nt out yet from what i've heard (i might be wrong) and the Ricohchet 2k is just plain ugly and i'm not convinced that it works as they say.

Just my opinion

stick with the good ol revvy

revoloutions are best, simple, they dont look to ugly and everyone uses them, they even have a new gem series to make it a bit better

Nothing really, the X-board is a little more consistent and they're putting a new polycarbonate body (much tougher) out in the fall.

ah hah!

That's a good question, and another is what will B.E. do to our trusty Revolutions? "New and improved" often means, "new and screwed". Hopefully this will not be the case but I'm anxious to see one for myself.
Anyhoo, the X board is supposed to be a new board for the Rev. and a slightly redesigned hopper casing. According to WARPIG's write up and what I read on the viewloader site, it will feature a stronger/shatter resistant body and have a coating to prevent paint/moisture from getting into the electronics and stuff. The paddles are also a little different in teh new design and the thing is supposed to feed more consistently. They never say it will feed faster, just that it will help keep more paint in line to the breech.
When do they hit stores so I can check one out?

IMHO

The new delayed board (been around for a while) was introduced to stop the loader reacting too quickly to slight gaps in ball feed.

I think the delay is too long but VL/BE have at least brought out this new board!!!

Until then just take the board out of an old loader and put it into your new one!!!! (providing the reason you havent bought the new one because the old board is shagged:D )

See y'all
