New 2008 Jap Stella - Any Field Reports?

Hi all

I know a few of you here have the bigger models of the new 2008 Japanese domestic market Shimano Stella, specifically the 10000, 18000 and 20000 models.

I would like to know your thoughts on them. Are they any better than the older model Stellas (SW and FA models) and Daiwa Saltigas? Any reports on design flaws? I recall the previous model Stellas and Saltigas had some initial teething problems.

If not, anyone know of any online reviews?

I ask because I'm considering getting either a 10000 or 18000.

I do have some reservations on the latest Stellas as I own both the new Stella 4000FD and Morethan Branzino, and while their specs are almost identical (on paper), IMHO the Daiwa is hands down the better reel.

cheers

dave
