I've been excited about the binary matrix since it was first released by Mobius, and waiting for the inevitable Chinese knockoff to come around, but I really wish they weren't knocking off the aesthetic of the piece too. Largely because, as much as I have been a Mobius fan for a while I really hate the overall look of the new line. But also because I feel like there's a difference between copying form and copying function.

I want to be getting a piece that gives me the function of a Mobius design, but I don't necessarily want to buy a poor imitation of his aesthetic. I'd much prefer the perc in a simple straight can, without the additional flair around the top of the can and weird looking mouthpiece. Just my

Sidecar, or bubbler,
"Tube" style (straight, bent or angled)
