the sync detect on the sw100S is pretty good, and although i've never played 
with a 2010, both the 7600G and GR's is pretty useable, although I think the 
100S is my favorite,  Sure would like to have one of those lil jewells, but 
not willing to pay what they're bringing on the used market, I've had a 
couple, three in fact, but let em all go unfortunately, but you guys know 
the drill, hi. dd.
