Raith is correct. There have been so many promises made by ARES that it's sick. ARES has had "deposits" for buyers of the Shrike for literally YEARS. Many of those have realized that it just isn't going to happen and asked for refunds. ARES probably cleaned up on interest from the "deposits" since they have had them for so long. It's a very cool idea, but there have just been too many bridges burned in the process of bringing it out. Go to the SAR show in December and I guarantee that ARES will be there with a prototype tauting how it's going to be out "very, very soon"... just like they did last year, the year before that, the year before that, etc... :s
