Unhappy No more Kiwi OSDs!

I've just discovered that the Kiwi OSD is no longer being manufactured.

That's such a shame. I've been interested in timing astro events for a while and having recently purchased a video camera with external video recording ability, I was considering buying a Kiwi OSD and a video astro camera to get into some occultation timing. The Kiwi OSD struck me as the bee's knees for accurate timing.

I've just had a quick browse on the web and found a possible alternative:

Anyone know how these perform?
