I have the older 15XL headset and have loved it. Recently though I seem to have lost the sidetone function on radio transmissions. Oddly, the intercom sidetone works fine. I gave a call to LightSpeed but the tech guy didn't have an immediate feel for the what the problem was and suggested that I send it in and they would check it out and fix it if possible. He also mentioned the 'Trade Up' program - your old 15XL's plus $300 gets you a new pair of Twenty 3G's (

I have been seriously thinking of upgrading and now might be a good time. Cell phone capability (ie, poor man's in flight wx) would be nice to have. It would also be nice to be able to call Flight Service when Potomac Clearance loses my ADIZ flight plan
. I think I'll do a little net searching this weekend to see what the street prices are.
