don't the Cannons have a life time warranty? I think you have to ship it to the factory but I recall reading about the warranty some time back.
I really like the idea of the digitroll option but I have several other upgrades to consider before adding this type of feature that is essentially just for lakers. This is the first I read about the problems with the product. If I'm tracking bottom, I'd really want to rely on a system that wasnt responsible for leaving DR balls, releases and terminator kits all over the bottom of the lake. Before that type of gadget, I would probably look at the iTroll to up my numbers.
Back to the original question. I have no problems with the competition but have been very happy with Cannon product and can't think of a reason to leave that product behind to try something different. The Scotty's seem to be the competition chasing Cannon and people that have them say good things about them.
Good luck...a few more weeks and we should be able to wet out gear.
