belay devices 25-Feb-2004 At 8:51:57 PM Tel

most of you probably have seen a few of my posts by now and realise I am still very much a newbie, bumblie, hack etc etc. And my question this time is related to belay devices.
I bought a petzl reverso a while ago and at the time I took the advice of the person selling it to me. I am wondering whether there are some out there that either have or used this belay device and what they thought of it, good or bad, or if the device is problematic. I don't at this point regret my choice of belay device( used only twice) but wonder whether ther was a better/ or more practicle option.
I have done a little wandering around searching for info and it seems that it is a mixed bag of opinions.
Any thoughts on belay devices would be appreciated.
Cheers
