Yeah, I'm gettin anxious. I'd really like to buy one, its just very much up in the air right now.

Good point about the temp/pressure issue theunchosen. I'd have to make sure it has a thermal switch to disable the heater should it exceed ~210F. I'd like to keep the heat in the thermos instead of releasing it into the aluminum block that will quickly dissipate heat. I've noticed that the Matrix won't warm up above ~90F in the cold of winter even in the garage. I credit this much to the aluminum block.
