"Whats the difference with the Nextel versions? Most Microwave XT versions have that crappy Nextel paint which decays very naughty (gets sticky, flaky, dirty and grey-ish) over time and this can't be fixed anymore. The surface on the edition listed keeps the strong orange colour, has texture and is non-sticky/grease collecting/decaying/falling apart etc. You will end up with something that will never look good anymore. Its just a matter of time.

You can recognise this rare Non-Nextel Microwave easy: it doesn't have the plastic display cover (but green painted elips around the display instead and best of all: it looks super fresh orange, doesn't feel sticky and doesn't peel off just like that. Just compare this one with the other XT's offered.

Also the (on all units) decaying original knobs are replaced for the beautiful Waldorf Q knobs, they look better and don't fall apart over time. So this XT is ready for the future."
