I was just looking at the VEX site, planning to buy some spare 884's, and I noticed this message on the page:
"A new and improved version of the Victor 884, the Victor 888, will be available Thanksgiving 2012. The Victor 888 will include a linearized output."

Anybody have any inside information? Sounds like a nice improvement to the 884's, and removes the need to linearize the output via code.
Maybe wishful thinking, but it would be nice to hear if they are going to be FRC legal for the 2013 game sometime before January 5th.
