Wouldn't be bad if the shipping charges was not the same as the charge for the DSP.

Looks like they try to avoid ebay fees. If you look at their site the price is $698. That would leave about $40 for shipping if you compare to the ebay price including shipping. :roll:

We may launch DSP with a color LCD on March without additional cost. Just like the good old itme, price stay the same.

Then, a touchscreen control LCD (optional) is seheduled to production on coming May. This one we will ask for just a little fee, possible $50~$75 range. It should be either a 5" or 7" color touchscreen

BTW, I just launched a new software for the DSP 2012 with dyanmic simulation for the job. Plus, it will show job time afterward by clicking "estimate work time" from the Tool menu. It would be great when it comes to a color LCD

Is it just the LCD panel control that changes or is it the main controller board as well? I guess what I'm really asking is if it could be possible to upgrade with a new display and software without needing a complete new DSP?

That I don't know yet. I need to discuss with the engineers, both hardware and the software guy.
For the touchsreen version, I'm going to ask them to put the job simulation and completion time feature on the LCD display.
But doing so, it willl cost a little bit higher than the current model

I would wait a bit, if the color panel is important to you.

Doubt you can directly import the settings as the awc 608 has features that the other does not and the files till be different. However, the significant vales will be quite similar, so writing them down and the entering them in the 608, will help to get you up and running quickly.

Yes, it's available now. But I don't like the LCD keypad panel. It looks not very handsome. I'll get one for testing and anyone want it, please let me know asap as I just placed an order. However, I just asked for 1set of LCD with color panel.

I'll be taking a trip to China the end of this month and will stay there for 1.5m. I'll try to design a better panel and build my water cooler during my trip. Plus I'll do more shopping to get more DIY parts for laser machine and CNC. More, I'll lauch another X-Y stages with 2:1 reduction gear. Then, no more complain of XY stages without the reduction gear. Plus, I'll upgrade the current model soon.

See the picture of the color LCD panel
