I would rather have a smaller machine just for travel. I have that travel zen as well and I don't like extra baggage with me. Some of my trips are even just overnight or two days and all that extra is just time consuming and annoying. I have looked at the new Airmed Mini but not realy wanting to spend that much extra. My current machine has a humidifier but I am pretty sure I could live without it too. I am considering giving the air mini some time to go down in price but I really don't want to wait.
From what I read the Z1 is noisier in a more constant manner. The Mini works great and, if you add in the only advantage of the Z1 - the battery pack, the Mini actually comes out cheaper. Worth it.

It's a speciality device, it may take a while for the price to lower a lot. Used may be a option, we know how fickle people are. Jim
