I would like to add a note to this. "Edge" model units are now replaced with G-9 units. G-9 comes in two parts instead of one. The outer mounted one is same as "Edge". Other one is placed inside machine. I have been told, the reason they have changed, is increased use of smart phone apps to pay direct from phone,. So the same model that might be on your other machines will not be available. The new purchase price quoted is about $275.

I just installed a bunch of G9s, and they seemed to get up and running quicker than the G8s did.

The only downside so far that I have found on USA Tech, is they still don't have a deal with MasterCard Debit cards....so if you have a customer base or banks that primarily use MasterCard Debit cards, then be warned. I am disappointed USA Tech doesn't make that clear when they are promoting their products.
