I've been working on a review of the new MSR Whisperlite Universal.
The big news is that the new Whisperlite Universal will run on gas as well as liquid fuel.

Running on canister gas. NICE big flames.
My review of the new MSR Whisperlite Universal is complete and now available:

By the way, Seattle Backpackers Magazine (http://seattlebackpackersmagazine.com) is a worthwhile read even if you're not interested in my particular article.

It's a really nice stove and a really nice job by MSR.
