If one is afraid of losing the power while waiting on their new unit, they can go ahead and purchase the v3, wait until it arrives, unmarry the v2 and setup the v3, then sell the v2 for around 500-600. That's better than the trade in value. I will wait to see the practicality of those who actually have it and if it is actually worth it.

Exactly, and another thing of note: IF you're driving around with the obd plugged in and communicating, and you kick it my accident, hit a bump, etc... it could short and cause all sorts of crazy codes. A novice enthusiast may think he has a problem when really there is none, and spend tons of money chasing a ghost...
Happens all the time to me at work. A driver kicks the datalogger cable and it partially disconnects for a split second. They bring the car back and I spend an hour trying to reverse engineer nothing
