Hold the Press ! Looks like the unequalled Fein MultiMaster finally has some competition !
Bosch just released their PMF 180 E Multi - word has it at a fraction of the cost of the Fein MultiMaster. Plus, in a departure from the norm, this tool is primarily green instead of the usual Bosch blue.

The tool is aparently now available in Europe, no word on when it will be available across the pond. The Bosch Germany website says the PMF180E will retail for €99, which works out to approximately $130 here in the USA.

We've talked to a few people at Bosch and no one is clear when this will be available outside of Europe. As soon as we can find out, we'll post that information.

UPDATE 10-3-2008: We still haven't heard about when the PMF180E will be available stateside. However, Bosch recently announced the PS50 Multi-X tool, a 12v lithium ion cordless version of this product that will sell for around $200. Sibling company Dremel also has it's own version hitting the streets soon, the Multi-Max and it should be available for less than $100.
