I am as in the dark as you guys regarding the new Weber, however, I know with 100% certainty that our tester Max Good at AmazingRibs.com has had one for a couple of weeks now and his review will publish tomorrow. Yes Weber is spilling the beans at that time anyway, but Max has put it through its paces and will let us know how it compares with everything else at that price point. I do know he's pretty excited about the whole thing!
