Folks -

I just got off the phone with my local Oceanic dealer and got the following
on the Oceanic Phibian:

1) The '95 catalog has pictures ;).

2) The CCS-50 (Nitrox) is expected early this year, but until the distributors
   are selected (presumably by Oceanic via some arcane process) orders will
   not be taken.  He suggested April as target of opportunity.

3) The CCS-100 (Trimix) isn't expected until late this year, and the dealer
   I talked to wasn't that excited about it (he's not a technical guy).

4) He was unable to confirm or deny the rumour that the CCS-50 would shut
   down after a deco. dive, but he said it wouldn't surprise him after what
   they (Oceanic) did with the DataMax Sport a few years back.

My question for anyone out there who cares; will Oceanic be offering a trade
up program to the CCS-100 for people who buy a CCS-50 in '95?  The guy I
talked to had no idea.

That's all for now.

Scott.
