mcwhittal's Full Review: Whistler DE-1630 Radar Detector
I was very impressed w/ this model of detector. I initially bought it at a Costco in my area for under a $100.00 dollars, and it has saved me from a ticket on many occasions. I find that it DOES work on the VG2 system, and also works great for alerting you of a highway signal ahead. As for the laser, it detects it VERY well, and often will "chirp" for quite some time until you actually hit the trap- alerting you to slow down.
I had a bell prior to this, and since going to the Whistler (initially for the cost) I wouldn't buy anything else.
