For all those who love the RE11, you might want to stock up before they stop making them.

The description makes it sound like the new RE-71R has limited ability in rain, while the RE-11 is pretty well reviewed for that. Doesn't sound like a very good replacement to me. Suppose I better order the RE-11 for my M235xi soon then.
