I'm on the hunt for a new walkie truck and I've visited 4 of the main vendors in my area.

Cat WP4500 $4995
Crown WP2300 $5200
Yale MPB040-E $4195
Raymond 102XM $4295

I've narrowed my decision down to either the Raymond or the Yale, but I can't decide between the two. Raymond comes standard with many more features vs the Yale (many user programable features, numeric locking/unlock keypad, digital battery meter...) which makes me lean towards Raymond, but is simpler sometimes better in terms of electronic gadgets?
I'd like to know which of the two you guys would choose in terms of reliability and cost of maintainence. Please help me out as I have to make my purchase this week.

Thanks a million.
