So basically the nice person from Jinke made a bad business call in letting someone have such a device before the old ones where sold. Thats just simple economics.
I'm giving Sony and iRex plenty of credit. It's Jinke I'm not giving credit for holding back on the Vizplex model when they have it for sale.

Sony may very well have the 505 ready to go. But they aren't yet selling it. So you cannot buy one. All we have is an advert from one store that was quickly pulled. We don't even know if the date of release is correct or when in October it is due even if October is correct. iRex's one fault in this case is calling the new iliad a v2. It's not really that much of an update. Maybe a v1.5.
