[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1256291, member: 54178"] Doc, I can't see how things can get much better with the Kestrel/AB Elite 5700 unless it wipes my nose too. Perhaps the main thing I'd like to see is the Kestrel with some iteration of Bluetooth (i.e legacy version or new CONX version) be adopted by all of the better laser rangefinder manufacturers. **That way after ranging with a Bluetooth equipped LRF the Kestrel could instantly show the firing solution. No range distance needs to be manually entered. You have made a start in this area in partnering with Bushnell and the CONX Sportsman LRF. It's getting several manufacturers on board with this that is the problem. Also the Kestrel unit would not have to be "aimed" at the target to get the angle as the LRF would ([U]should[/U]) have an angle compensation program built in, as is the case with my Bushnell ARC 1 Mile binoculars. [B]STANDARDS:[/B] Kestrel needs to work with the LRF industry to set standards for them going forward. No other hand held device does what the Kestrel/AB Elite 5700 does. You are the industry leader and as such should lead the standardization effort for LRF design in communicating with the Kestrel/AB units. [/QUOTE]
