Upgrade or not, it's not like they didn't know this wasn't coming down the pipes three months ago and there are plenty of people (like myself) who would get MUCH more use out of this model but sure can't spend money on another one. I'm a student, I've PILES of PDF's that I've had to spend hours converting or not been able to use at all and I'm ticked. I don't normally get angry about these consumer issues.. but three months? That's absolute crap.

I agree.. they are different things. But even the 'rumor mill' doesn't matter - there's been rumors of this sort of things since day one.

I don't mind being an early adopter. But being an early adopter means taking a chance on the product and the company - not "we're going to make a new one in three months but not tell you about it!"
