The Ti Charge with Scissors? I'll definitely pay the increased price when they come out. That's the only thing that held me to my Wave. Doug, can we assume the Al replacements will have the scissors change as well?

It actually sounds like they are introducing the Al replacements at the current Ti price point and moving the Ti into the higher price point due to escalating demand of Ti. Your comment in the end about putting them on your list sounds a touch ominous, but I hope you mean get one when they come out because they'll be in high demand, not that Ti is going away for good.

The AL models will REPLACE the current Ti models. The only Titanium Handle model will be the new TTi. If that isn't clear, guess I need to rewrite it.

I think I may have read that a bit incorrectly. Let's see if this clarifies:

Current Ti Models will be replaced with Al going forward - presumably at same price point.
New TTi Titanium model will be more expensive, but will contain the scissors.

Doug, I take it you mean that folks should snap up the remaining stock of Ti Charges already in the pipeline before they dry up and permanently go to Aluminum. However, the future Ti model will be around for some time to come (though I'm guessing pretty pricey).

Maybe I read it wrong....
