That's good looking! I wonder what it will sell for "on the street."

I can say I never was enamored with the original Pogue Speedtimer, and the new solar version lacks all the funky 70's design charm. So naturally, I'm not interested.
On a side note, Bill Pogue's only space mission was Skylab 4. His 2 crewmates likewise only went to space for Skylab 4. They all resigned from NASA shortly after the mission. It is widely acknowledged they knew they would never get another mission after staging a minor mutiny and turning off the radio for some time to have a bit of time off from the crowded schedule of activities Mission Control was throwing at them for this final Skylab mission. The crew of Apollo 7 similarly were stricken from future mission rotation due to arguing with Mission Control about the doing all the scheduled mission activities.

Can't say I've ever been a fan of "The Pogue" in the first place, but I have to say I like this iteration but not enough to even consider one.
