Uniden's history has been spotty so it might pay to wait until the warranty has expired. Before Jon installed my GPS, I had already returned the SDS100 for the infamous solder problem. As it turned out, the Uniden repair was questionable. The scanner worked but the solder repair was only hanging on by a thread. Not only did Jon install the GPS, he also fixed the cold solder joint again and found and repaired some others that were dubious (and all this at a very reasonable price).
When I decided to get the GPS, my warranty had expired. It's a judgement call but all other things being equal, I'd wait.
