just a side note about the cordless that i forgot - Your basically paying more and getting less detection with these becuase the detector cycles on and off to save battery, so there's less distance and less time to adjust accordingly...
Ya, you are paying for the cordless convenience that is for sure.. However, the Solo S2 is as good and better then "most" of the corded detectors out there as far as range and detection ( whistler, PNI, and other junk ).. Granted they are at half to a 3rd of the price.. Although the higher end models like the x50, RX65, and such are better then the Solo S2 but, only by a small percentage. It is a great detector even better that its cordless.. At least for my needs anyways..
Also, on a side note I haven't had an issue with the sunlight making the display hard to read.. Maybe it's just me but, I never had an issue with it and I have a sunroof in every car I drive.
But, as stated before unless you really want cordless then you are a little better off getting a corded one.. The built in ones I really like due to the fact that you don't have the detector in plain view for everyone to see.. Nice and stealthy.. I would have went that route if I wasn't living in VA but, I still would have gotten the cordless to use for rental cars when traveling.
