How long is this delay going to be? Any news on a release date? I'm ready to try something new.

I'm always leery of purchasing anything that's just been released. I usually wait 6-12 months to see if all the bugs have been worked out. Though the F44 appears to be an exciting detector i'll wait a bit & read about the experiences of others.

The delay is likely from a field tester noticing something not quite perfect. I'm going to wait for some meaningful reviews.

I heard the delay was from a packaging delay, not anything with the functionality of the detectors. They didn't have the fancy box ready, and someone in Marketing likely didn't want them shipping out in ugly brown cardboard boxes. :)

I am ready for it to get here. I bet it is going to be hot on coins. I have a sneaky feeling. I could care less about the box...A brown paper bag would be just fine...Lets get this show on the road!

I got mine today. I have a lot to learn! Due to my lack of experience (as in, almost NONE), it would be pointless for me to comment with no point of reference. But I know that I'm going to like this hobby once I learn about how to understand the detector and the different modes. It DID locate a penny between 8 1/2 and 9 inches deep, though!

Just talked to kellyco management, they advised UPS shows truck sitting in Orlando depot waiting for local delivery, they do not know what is on the truck whether it's both F 22 and F 44 or just one or which one... F 11, F 22, & F 44 were all on the same PO that shows shipped, the F11s arrived yesterday and have been shipped out already.

Kellyco just called me, they got F22 and 44s in today and are shipping them out today.

Fisher backordered a few F22 & F44s so Kellyco contacted Fisher and set them up to be dropped shipped directly by Fisher to customers that were back ordered. Fisher advised they will be shipped today as well.

Kellyco has another shipment that is being shipped to them for in stock supply and should be in stock in couple days.

This is interesting, as I ordered my F44 from my dealer just days before it was officially shipped, and I got mine already. Perhaps he had some on order? I don't know...not going to complain. They shipped to him and he got it on Saturday, and turned around and shipped it to ME on Saturday as well, and I received it yesterday.
