I am not sure what Andy and MArk are thinking on this one.
I don't think any teams should use them in 2008.

HOWEVER, Team 234 will volunteer to use these "unproven" devices in 2008 and then report back to the other 1500 FIRST teams on how they do. Then, maybe you can consider them for 2009.

I know, I know, this is a big sacrifice for us to take, but we are willing to do this as a sign of true Gracious Professionalism.
It just seems like the right thing to do.

The only thing I can say is that they are real good! I should know!
