Has anybody tried the new ResMed S8? Wondering how it compares to the C Flex?

The S8 does not have expiratory relief.

The S8 Escape does not have expiratory relief. The S8 Compac is expected in July and will not have expiratory relief. The S8 Elite and S8 Spirit are due out in August. They will have Expiratory relief.

Are the new S8 machines gonna be worth waiting for? Which is better - the new RemStar Pro2 with Cflex or the RemStar pro? Or do you have another suggestion?

The accuracy of Resmed press releases isn't so good. You could ne waiting for a LOOOOOONG time. They might have a cure for OSA before Resmed delivers.
