Re: Boomerang survey - please respond

[Mark Hamburg <mark@grubmah.com>]

The Boomerang III (absent the SideCar) doesn't have a dedicated stack 
button. Stack is one of the functions you can assign to the dual (tap v 
hold) buttons. So, at button press time the Boomerang III might not know 
whether the loop was being closed or not.
