If you serious about your business then you should realize that part of your overhead is for training and certification.

Absolutely, I'm not complaining. As I remember the $75 cost was from way back even before the TD.

It's not that I don't like the systems, just that Panasonic makes you jump through hoops to do business with them and that's what turns me off.

Around here at least you can find someone selling 624's to anyone who walks through the door on almost every street corner. When I see a 624 install I can be certain it was done by a hack. On the other hand installers like myself who have been in the business for years can't buy a TD or TDA for the occasional customer who prefers it.
