<p>Ann, looking at your comments, you were about to buy that Impression back in December. I'm contemplating the Diamante or the Impression. I'd really like to hear your feedback on the Impression. I have the elan Mira by SG now and am frustrated by the stacking. Hoping to have that not happen much on a new machine. How is the audio on the Impression? I know it advertises a stereo input. </p>

I ordered it last week and I'm waiting to hear back to see when I can expect it. I'm really excited!! I will definitely let you all know how I like it. It's hard to find any reviews on the Impression so I'll provide one once I've had a chance to work with it a bit. Thanks for all of your input!

So I had an opportunity to "test drive" the Diamanté (but not the Impression) and spoke to both Stenograph and ProCAT sales reps, and I've decided to go with the Impression. They have a five-day return policy, no penalties....just in case. However I have a feeling I will love the machine. There were more pros with the Impression for me. Can't wait to fill out the paperwork on Monday!

<p>I've never had issues with the E key and I have had my diamante for four years. However, I did get it shimmed (shortened stroke) and I have had some issues. I would not retrofit. I suggest you wait for the next convention (if you can) and try them out that way. </p>

<p>Kelli, I'm really inclined to go for the Impression based on everything you've said about it. I like that it has a lighter touch due to the plastic keys and that ProCAT is in LA which is 40 miles from where I live vs Chicago. The fact that I'd have to ship my machine to Chicago for service with Stenograph is almost a dealbreaker for me. Plus I don't like what I'm hearing about some of the issues some of you are having with the Diamanté. I'll be calling ProCAT tomorrow to see if I can test…</p>

Stenograph is having that same deal right now which is why I'm considering buying the Diamanté. So how do you like the Impression? I want to look into that one too.

<p>If you look a ProCAT's Impression, they have a special right now: 0 down, 0% financing, and no payments for 90 days through the end of the month. </p>

<p>Regarding the new machines being repaired locally, I just took my ProCAT Stylus in for a complete tune-up to the most local guy here. He said that all of the new machines are only being done in-house for the first few years because they are very different from the older machines. He expects at some point that they will have to train the local technicians on the Diamante, Impression, etc. because they will not be able to keep up with repairs. He doesn't know when that will happen, though. </p>
