What "gamble"?
Well, with "gamble" I mean, there's no feedback, reviews, inside pictures, it may look similar to AN800X outside, but could be very different, for the worst or for the better. And if turns out to be a total flop (I'm probably/certainly over exagerating here...), I don't have any half decent backup meter at the moment...
That didn't help at all, did it?
Oh boy! Your right! Didn't help at all, I mean, I like and appreciate all of your knowledge/input (more and more, please
), but now I'm torned between the ZT301 and the AN860B+. If for one hand I like the specs of ZT301 (seems a little bit more updated than the AN860B+), on the other hand you make a good point about the rubberized case, I'm not a particularly fan of the sliding issue thing.
I think that it will come down to feature/adventure (ZT301) against sturdiness/battle tested (AN860B+).
I'll see more prices/availability of both, and make up my mind.
