Excuse me for the late response, I was in vacation during the last 2 weeks. The current version of Bandura does not possess imaging by heads feature as our Insight and Imager products. Though it is plans for future releases.

Yes, thank you very much for reply. Dmitry has already answered about this upon my question through Atola's webpage. Actually I am comparing the features and the price also with other vendor (DDI 4.0) but your Bandura is a stand alone unit which is comfortable for 'on-site' recovery, without having to bring a PC. This gives a big valuable point for Bandura.

I will have to consider Bandura in next few days.
Thanks again
