Is there / will there be a SDS500?

[Jake68111]

I knew as soon as the SDS100 dropped, I'd be getting it (got it 3 days after shipments started). It was so hard not to "jump" when the SDS200 came out because the wonder of whether or not a 500 is in the works. It is getting harder and harder everyday to not buy it but my overthinking is getting the best of me. Main purpose is form factor, for me. The HP form factor is not my favorite and would choose the 200 over it, however, a "old school, base looking" model I would definitely choose over the mobile-esque 200 (if the day of that ship hasn't completely sailed). Thinking I may not be the only one in this conundrum, maybe a poll will help treat my (and hopefully others) illness. Help me out.​

What is a SDS500?

I've got GAS (Guitar Acquisition Syndrome) and have had it for years. I hear it's incurable. Now, I suppose my scanner addiction could be called SAS (Scanner Acquisition Syndrome). It seems to be getting worse as the years go by. There is nothing for it, except, of course, to buy the latest and greatest new scanner. I fear I may eventually get into the hard stuff, like Motorola APXs. I hope not. Pray for me.

Seriously, tho, there are worse things in life.

PS - Paul, I think he is in the late stages of SAS, where you yearn for scanners that are but a figment of your imagination.

See. LMAO! It's this that keeps me wondering. Ugh. I've been around long enough to know that if the comment were made in person, I'd probably laugh before yelling AHHHHHHHH! LOL

Yes, there are more pressing things in life. I'd have to try to convince the wife though. Maybe a poll on excuses that have worked on significant others?!?

Yes... I have a test unit right now. It has a washer/dryer/microwave/toaster oven/blender/coffee maker/nail clipper feature and a dog walker otion.

Put that baby in a wood cabinet and I'll buy it. But it's got to have caster wheels or no deal!

But still no Bluetooth or USB -C connectors.

Threads like this make me laugh they get started every month give or take and the answers will always be the same. What is a so and so or when Uniden decides to release information if any we will be notified.

That's the SDS600...

If they do make one be sure to buy it from Paul at Bearcat Warehouse.

Lindsay is going to have to install some larger hard drives to store this thread!

I don't see it on my "sources" list any more so I say no now. They were correct on the 100/200 and EU versions as well.

Yeah butel.nl took it down some time ago.

Guess I missed it it does not come up on my phone and I have not been to the butel site in months. That is until just now and it does not show on my phone so out of sight out of mind.

On your smartphone...
Go to the link I posted above and select to save that page as a bookmark. Before saving it you will see the page title with all those models listed.
(That’s what I did on my iPhone just now for the above post)
You should be able to see the same info on your smartphone.

Thanks but really don't want it on my phone. Quit using butel products still have a few registered versions but went on to bigger and better things.

There will always be new scanners. So, what is the purpose of this thread?

It's another scanner you wouldn't buy.
