It is something to see how many COMPADRES are out their. I have 3. I still use the one I bought about a year after they come out with them. Later on I picked up an extra for a back up. Than on here someone had one for sale. Yep,, I bought that one too for my wife. Than Tabman had one for sale and,, YEP, I bought that one too. I had a friend on the east coast that wanted one. I sold one to him. He never looked back. He keeps telling me how much fun it is to use. I already new that. I dont the compadre will ever die out... KEN
