Thanks for this.  Do I understand then that the Leopard has a touchscreen
while the ocelot is simply a box that you plug interfaces into?  So the
ocelot is less fancy but probably more affordable!

Do you need to buy accessories to interface other things to it?

Joe:

While I can't answer your entire question, I can pass on a few bits of my
experience:

1.    I believe that a Leopard can do anything that an Ocelot can do.

2.    When I ordered my Leopard, they sold me a PSC05 rather than TW523.

3.    Be aware that the current model of the Leopard is designed to be wall
mounted.  So, there are quite a few exposed circuit boards in the back.

4.    Since I don't use IR, I can't help you on that.  But, I know that both
units have an IR capability.

Hope this helps.

Kevin
