Peter, I used to work in the Pro Centre at a big camera shop here in Toronto (the name starts with 'V'), and I asked a former coworker what he thought of the Skyports. He thinks they're great. Half the size of PWs, a little more than half the price, and just as reliable within their operating range. Just remember to turn them off when you're done with them, since they don't have a sleep mode. One aspect of the design I'm not mad about is, while there's a rechargeable battery in the receiver (smart), they use a CR2430 in the transmitter (dumb). It's a relatively cheap battery, so carrying spares won't be that much of a hardship, but you might not find one at a hardware or corner store on the way to the brides house on a Sunday morning.
FWIW, I'm planning on getting the Universal Skyport set, and put the money I save toward more glass.
