Well, I have the box sinker, but alas no roto-stop facility on my SDS Plus
drill (cordless Bosch 24v).  Mark keeps pestering me to do a review if the
box sinker - so I'm on the verge of going for the same DeWalt drill

that you are.  The things I do to
keep him happy ;)

Given the choice of value vs features, the DeWalt looks a pretty good buy.
I'd like the 4kg version, but at £359 it's more than twice the cost.  I
don't think you'll be disappointed... I'll have to order mine mid next week
as I'm out of the office next Monday and Tuesday :(
