Picoscope 3000 On Test

Pico Technology have completely updated their middle-of-the-range series of USB-oscilloscopes. The new PicoScope 3000 series has quite a bit to offer, such as, for a USB-powered scope, a very high sampling frequency of 500 Msamples/s and a built-in AWG/function generator. What is it like to use such a scope in practice? We spent some time using the type 3206B.
