Milwaukee 3.5hp Router?

Curious if anyone is using the new router from Milwaukee. Looks ideal for a shopbot, maybe a better alternative to Porter Cable.

Thanks,

Ken

I too been looking for feedback about this router model... I've been told that I should fit the SB provide holder for PC 7518... it should about 0.04" less in body diameter than the PC 7518. Though I did'nt find any local reseller!? Spec. looks to be close to the 7518... My 7518 is always as burning hot (at chuck/collet) as ever did when set to 16 000 and up! It's been rebuild once and did'nt change a thing! I'm more concern about my bits (just can't hold 'em with finger when run for long period) than about the router since I plan to choose another model...
