I think I may have actually found a hose end sprayer that makes it worth learning. I'm not going to go to far into the product details because you can see that for yourself on their website. What I'd like to do is review how I arrived on picking the sprayer I picked, how I plan to use it, and my overall opinion.

This is a really cool company based in North Little Rock Arkansas who appears to make quality products. I've called a few times with questions and they are very helpful and friendly. By way of "Hose End Systems" they have sprayers and foamers. We're obviously looking at sprayers…for now. Drill down a little further and they offer:
Compact Spray-All 20B (BLU09)
Compact Spray-All 50B (BLU10)
Hose-End Spray-All 50 (BLU11)
The 50 & 50B are both referred to as Medium Volume Sprayers, while the 20B is a Low Volume Sprayer. I'll be using this for the Greene County Products so I opted for the Medium Volume Sprayer due to the higher dilution ratio. I believe Greene County Recommends at least 20:1. Under "Requirements and Technical Details" they list the dilution ratios for each metering tip provided. When I need to do a low volume application I will use my backpack sprayer.
Now to compare the 50 to the 50B, which to choose is based on the size of your lawn. My lawn is around 25,000 sq. ft. and growing so I chose the Hose-End Spray-All 50. If you have a smaller lawn the Compact Spray-All 50B would be a nice little setup but I don't want to have to keep stopping to fill up the 32 oz. container.
The Hose-End Spray-All 50 arrived last weekend and this thing is Bad-A. It just feels good to walk around with, very high quality. "Machined in the USA, not molded" they say. The 50 does not come with a bottle so I found a 2.5 gallon Carboy from U-line with standard 38 mm threads. Check out my backpack setup!
