Dang, I must have been out to lunch when these were announced earlier this Spring.
 
For $40, Xmas is coming early this year!

if those are accurate, they would be way worth it.

I couldn't help myself and went for it this morning!  I had been eyeing their original photo colorimeter for a long time....but I couldn't bring myself to spend the $275 or whatever they are.  This little pocket unit is the exact same technology and is just as accurate according to Hanna.  They just realized how much further they could penetrate the reef aquarist market with these more affordable gadgets.  I ordered from Hanna direct on their shopping cart link.  It's a bit more than some of the other sites, but I couldn't find reagents on most of them: 
 
Make sure to order reagents as well (25 packets/test per).  I also ordered the "standard" (reference) cuvet for calibration...the cool thing with this is that, unlike the titration kit references, you never run out of this one, it just stays in the cuvet.  Also, the cuvet wipes are a joke at the price they have (they're just sunglass cloths).  I'll just use alcohol wipes from the Dr.'s office.
