I have had my JB since Jan 2010 and my ALP since March 2010. I maintain identical libraries on each using Synctoy and I like comparing them to each other. I have taken my JB through 2 FW updates and my ALP through 1 FW update. Both units are physically the same and all buttons still work as if they were new units. I have not experienced any issues with either display screens. I find the the supplied protective pouch does an excellent job of protecting the units.
Note: When I purchased my units I paid approx $210 for the JB and $180 for the ALP (Cnd $ ,tax included). Ectaco does have a shipping office in Canada. Now both units can be had for less.
