Today I saw on OM http://www.outdoorsmagic.com/news/article/mps/UAN/2933/v/1/sp/ (http://www.outdoorsmagic.com/news/article/mps/UAN/2933/v/1/sp/) (scroll to bottom to see the Helium) a new tent coming out from a UK company called Mountain Equipment. This tent kind of reminds of the Wanderlust Nomad 2-4-2 or the new SMD Lunar solo but its not single wall. It also could be compared to Hilleberg Akto, Terra Nova Laserlite, and the REI Roadster in style. It weighs 34oz’s and uses you trekking poles to set it up saving weight. They claim it is a two-person tent that is tall enough to sit up in but I do not have the specs yet. Anyways I thought it looked/sounded cool and I thought I would share.

Hard to tell from one photo, but the ventilation doesn't look very robust.
