Wilson HSM?

After spending a ton of time researching a HSM purchase, I bought one and received it yesterday. I bought the Diamond HSM, and while it seems pretty nice, I am worried about the sweat factor. The inner padding isnt removable, so this thing may turn into a wet rag after some use.
After reading all the posts on the All-Star and other HSM's, the Easton Stealths seem to be the favorite? However, I cant find any posts of anyone using the Wilson HSM (such as here: http://cat-sports.net/Merchant2/merc...gory_Code=BSMG)

Anyone have any thoughts or experience with that one? I will be using my new Diamond HSM soon, but I already have my doubts.....

Some info on the All-Star...

The sweat pads are removable.

You can buy extra's from All-Star, so you can swap them out between games.

Although their sweat pads work well, I purchased 5 extra pads, and sewed them together in pairs so they would be double thick. That works great. If you do that though, make sure you sew them Front to Back. One side is designed to stick to the Velcro, the other side is designed to absort sweat.
