Any news about this tuner gadget? Is it looking like you'll have them at the Army conference?

The Korg tuners had a wired clip on adaptor available. Other than the wireless feature, is this better than the wired version for tuning in a noisy environment?

I'm hoping the answer to this is yes. That's why I'm interested. I never figured out a very effective way to use the Korg clip-on with a tuba. It seems to have been made with guitars in mind, and for this I found it worked well. For the tuba, not so much, at least clipped on in the places I tried it. After a while it stopped working entirely. I'm hoping this wireless one will work well with the tuba and survive a while.

We've had a pretty good response to this at Hickey's. We plan on bringing some to the DC show in February. Here are the details we have http://www.hickeys.com/products/101/sku101430.htm
