Waived WBC or CBC

Does anyone use the HemoCue WBC device or the Sysmex XW-100 for waived testing? It looks like the Sysmex model is new to the market. Our Urgent Cares are asking for a POC device for at least a WBC.
Thanks for any input you have on either of these!

I checked into the Sysmex analyzer a few months ago since I thought it would be a good option for our clinics being that it is waived. They were in a holding status with sales until they get a few problems worked out with the analyzer.
The Hemocue for WBCs is not yet waived. We purchased a Sysmex XW-100 a while back and so far like it. I wonder what issues were causing them to put a hold on distribution. Anyone know?
