I totally agree, that is the way of our economy, make more money and do not care about the environment or the customer and hype the product with the much needed feature that was lacking in the first place. What I was getting at is that even if it seems that the older model has been forgotten, they have done more than Sony would have ever done. I do think they may still do some update, maybe 1 final update to add features if the hardware permits it.

And coming from a OK I can say that the best thing that would happen is that you would be stuck with a touch. It is so much better than the original and the touch part was not what interested me in the first place, but it does seem more intuitive and it means that the can do thing with the interface that would not have been possible without it. It takes a little of getting used to but I am reading 2 times as much as before.
