Last year's news: http://www.jobo.com/jobo_press/pr/20...OBO_Analog.pdf

As far as I can see, what's in the blog is copied entirely (but incompletely) from this press release - from May, 2006...

October 12, 2006.

I thought the date was a typo...

(some people wish it still was 2006)

Why not check some facts first before posting stuff that is alarminst and incorrect?

First, it IS dated June 2006. Why would you think that it was a typo, and if you did, why not check it? There is even a thread here discussing this from June 2006!!

So, not only is it old "news", it has now been superceeded. They have started production again, and this was discussed in this thread http://www.largeformatphotography.in...jobo+processor. And this is one that you even contibuted to yourself. Amazing.

You're right. I merely ran into a post at another thread that was current and thought the info was current too. Sorry you had to waste all of your precious time looking up my old post. I forgot about the February 07 posts on this forum. But then when you get to be my age with "oldtimers" you forget things. Alarmist??? Phototherm is a better machine anyway.

Shouldn't LF purists be using trays anyway?

The good news that it's in production. The bad news is still being distributed by Omega-Satter.
