Excellent Customer Service!

The price and availability were second to none! We were able to complete a critical outfitting of several police vehicles do to the speed of delivery of the chip. Thanks Sonic!

Gotta have it.

.... Well not really, but you will. My Bitwriter had a 2.6 chip in it and the current lineup (2012) needs a 2.7 chip. So why not get the 2.9? It works well and I never have any write errors.
