Hope so. I'm waiting, too. (Although I've already decided I'm going to buy one.)

Same here all. I have been checking several times a day for weeks now. I am new to the forum and always check out TT's say on a product before I seriously consider the purchase/application. I am considering a zillion for T-rigs and other plastic work, but I have heard it is not the best at handling lighter weighted baits. I can only afford one MH wormin' rig right now, so I want a reel to be able to cover as many bases as possible (from weightless plastics to semi-deep water/cover work). Thanks all.

Hi Guys, I seriously think you guys have our office tapped or something. Who's listening in, is there a hidden camera in here? :lol: Both JIP and Cal are working on the Zillion. We have both the domestic and Japan versions in and are about 80% done with testing and will start the writeup in just days. Stay tuned....

I'm guessing we'll have to wait until 2007 for this one?

I eagerly await the review. 8-)

Any closer to the Zillion review? Enquiring minds gotta know. Its gonna be tough decision in buying a burner these days. Curado vs Revo vs Zillion vs Tour edition PT.

Would've pulled the trigger on a high speed Zillion already but have heard reports on them having a few "issues" so I'm doubly keen on the review. Hopefully it'll cover both the 6.3 and the 7.1....
