Marco,
I have your version 1 and I love it. It does just about everything I need and it seems that there would be a large audience for a more affordable unit. One look in the gallery at my black granite engravings is evidence that it is very capable. Some of my best works are not even posted there because I have to keep some works private.
You could restart version 1, but somehow though I don't understand how it can actually be very much cheaper to build than your newest unit. Sometimes older chips actually become more expensive than the newer more powerful replacements.
If I have one complaint, it would be that your computer software outgrew my hardware. I guess I had what is not your version 1, but perhaps your version 0.9, because I was seeing updates come out that my hardware could not run. I like the more modern approach of making hardware where the firmware it contains can be upgraded by downloading a new file to upgrade it. If I am going to purchase a new unit to replace my present unit, I will be wanting one that can receive firmware updates. I think others would agree that this can be one of the biggest selling points.
