Rapidcycler opinions

[Walter Hill]

Our lab is contemplating purchasing a Rapidcycler manufactured by Idaho 
Technologies, Inc. which promises 30-35 cycles of PCR amplification in 
about 10 min.

Any information regarding the performance of this instrument (pluses and 
minuses) will be appreciated.  

[standard isclaimers apply]

Thanks in advance and I'll post a summary.
