Project Acryl-it Platter

I have a Debut 3 with Speedbox 2 and Ortofon OM 20 stylus upgrade. Really hate the felt mat that sits on top of the Steel Platter. Considering getting the Acryl-it Platter or possibly a Herbie's Way Excellent Mat or something comparable.

Not sure which way to go and was wondering if any other Project owners could share their experiences with upgrading their Platter and or mat. Would like to keep the cost within the price ranges of the above options.

Does the Herbie's Mat cut down on static? The OEM felt mat is stuck to the bottom of the LP after playing and I have to peel it off and reattach to platter.

Why would Pro-ject supply the Debut with the Ortofon OM series Cart if they are outdated? (I think either Rega and/or Music Hall also include the OM Carts on their entry level tables) I've read a lot of "Professional" reviews of the Debut 3 and none of them trashed the OM. Most of them suggested upgrading to the OM20 or 30.

The Expression is a better TT than the Debut 3, with a better Carbon Fiber arm. I'm sure that table would benefit from a newer Cart.
