New Abu Garcia spinning reel

I saw these during a Fishing Trip marathon on Saturday. Does anyone having info on them? Apparantly they have 11 ball bearings and all the other good gear. I think they are about to hit the stores.
All the best, Colin Hay

They are called the Pro I series. These guys were testing them out on mackeral and tuna and some bottom bashing. They looked pretty good.
