And agreed, the marketing verbiage Amazon's used is unfortunate.
I say Amazon should offer a steep discount to customers with color blobs, if they are willing to get an OTA update to get the light disableD. Make it $69, same as the K4B, for customers who already have a defective unit and dealt with multiple returns already. Or, for new customers, sell the non-light version for $89.
