Now, why is the casing of these units so similar? (i.e. RC, CarBahn, Manhart, etc.)
Also, Wow! $579!!! Probably the best price seen to date!

To save me some typing the below is a response from a similar comment/inquiry on the other S58 thread in the X3M section.
"Don't think we make any great effort to hide where the physical hardware components comes from. From a cost perspective it simply makes more sense then continuing to go down the path of our own internally developed version of hardware (DINANTRONICS Elite). Lots of great things they were capable of but frankly they were just incredibly expensive to produce which hampered them in many ways.
As far as X goes though -- the hardware may be the same/similar to other entities but the software/calibration/tune is unique to Dinan. Ultimately its another option in the marketplace at a price point we think makes it a valid option for consideration."
