It would be fine if there were more than two levels of sensitivity.

Agree..

It still has toy front end, max of only 32kS of memory.  It should be max 200-250 USD retail and 100-120 USD academic.
It is a didactic toy.. No doubt useful but too expensive for what it is...
$379 buys you professional entry level standalone scope these days..

It is clearly meant for the educational market.  It is both more and less than an entry level scope.  It (using the WaveForms software) offers a signal analyzer functionality (up to ~50MHz) with a dynamic range which is much more usable than the 'FFT' (check-mark) functionality of entry level DSOs.  Otoh, I got the impression that the trigger is more dependable on my Rigol 1054Z, so if you're hunting down a fault, you'd prefer that.  If I could keep only one, I'd keep the AD.

I agree with your analysis but I would keep the DS1000Z. It is real scope despite its shortcomings.
Before (this price hike up) I was of the opinion that you could combine a small but real scope (DS1000Z, Miscig, SDS1000X-E) and AD2 and have very nice set of capabilities for not too much money....
Of course AD3 is better than no scope, but you can get real scope for that money now...

Ehhh... we are all different, aren't we....  :-DD
Best,

no Digikey only sells to companies.
If I were to buy from Digilent, I might have to collect the goods from customs. I am not able to do that for health reasons.

You can buy them on Farnell, etc.

I haven't had any trouble ordering from Digikey for personal use (Farnell is a different story). They don't have any in stock yet though.
