New RIANOV Eagle II Weapon-Mounted Ballistic Computer
Recently previewed at SOFIC 2014 in Tampa, Rianov has been putting the finishing touches on their latest ballistic computer, the Eagle II. Designed with high-speed, low-drag in mind, the Eagle II can store dope information for up to 16 different weapons.
Using previous dope information, the low-profile ballistic computer kit is capable of reading temperature, barometric pressure, cant, and angle to provide the shooter with a complete shooting solution. The Eagle II is easily manipulated via its remote keypad, situated anywhere on the weapon system.
The Eagle is available with rail and scope mounts for 1″, 30mm, 34mm, and 35mm scopes. The computer itself retails for $750 for US domestic customers and $900 for international prospects. Mount kits retail for approximately $59 each.

So this is supposed to replace a $100 range finder, a small weather station ($50, or free app on my phone), and a free app on my Android? Pass.
You still have to read the wind. When they can come up with a device for that, then I might be interested.
Doesn't seem that useful, maybe more practical than all the other doodads for shooting at range?
I am not interested until they make something that can compensate for wind.
