They were probably waiting for the release of the new model as they probably share firmware. But that's just my guess.

EDIT: corrected "fireware" to "firmware".

From the descriptions I've read it sounds like the device might be using whole disk encryption. If correct, that might explain why it can't be mounted as a mass storage device.

How does one take a screenshot on this unit?

Also, given its apparent security focus, does it have a lock screen after a timeout? If so, can the user set the lock image?

This is exactly my problem with it and why I didn't care for iOS/iTunes.

I just want to point out that the device costs $699.99, not $800.00. I know it is still expensive either way but it kind of bothers me to see the price incorrectly listed in this thread.

NullNix: I much prefer block paragraphs as I find them to be more readable. But like a lot of things, it comes down to personal preference.
