NEW VCI-100 PLATES or WRAP?

[liam.h]

prob gonna sound like daft question, but is wrap like a giant sticker?

I think this is the company that Ean may use to design and make the wraps.

Should give everybody a better idea of what the wraps are.

My vote goes for the wrap. Having knobs and buttons clearly marked out with their proper function is key! I'd rather have that than looking at the plates and remembering all the functions by memory.

Just for the pricing of the kit over all the wrap will make things more pocket friendly. This would leave some headroom for the firmware cable to be included without a jump in price maybe?

The plates are the same as you can see in the VCI-SE: all the functions are printed (or engraved) on them...

i question whether the wrap will stay in place for long.

Ever left a laptop with stickers on it in a hot car? Nasty.

Definately plates,
Wraps may be a little cheaper but if you want a wrap there are already plenty of places that can make you one for a reasonable price, and you can have your own personal labels where you deviate from Ean's Ttks.
However for those that want plates there is no way to get something like that made affordably without ordering a large quantity.
So if wraps are used any one who wanted plates is up shit creek, whereas if plates are chosen any body who wanted a wrap could get a personalised one made for around the same price/
Personally I want the plates because they will be solid like the VCI is already, however wraps look generally tacky and toyish.

Oh, I'm dumb. When I thought of plates, I initially thought that meant the jog wheels! LOL. But yeah, I'd rather have a sturdy plate, than a vinyl sticker.

Plates all the way. Image certainly helps a lot and having plastic around your vci-100 doesnt help you. I know wraps are cheaper but perhaps giving people both options wouldnt be a bad idea.
