Still a good detector though.How can you say it's outdated, when Valentine releases updates whenever necessary? The design may look the same, but there are all kinds of changes happening under the hood. They offer updates to your current detector for $150. As someone else posted, the test was a bit baised according to the Valentine crew, but I'd be happy to run down the highway with someone with the Cobra, and see how it works in the real life.
