I just moved to Melbourne from Hobart last December (for work). (...) (24 years ago, 10-Aug-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.org.au)

(...) Do you reckon they might package some of the new sensors in with a new release? That would push the price up but still might be cheaper than buying them separately (I'm hopeful, aren't I?!)
