Anybody heard anything about the new 4500's as far as features? I want a closeout sale on the 4000's like the RioCar. That would be sweet.

Something tells me they won't be "closing them out" since they include the lifetime subscription that isn't going to come with the 4500. Kind of a unique situation there, and I don't think they'll have trouble selling the ones they have on hand before the 4500 release...

I must be psychic. They're already discontinuing the 4040 model (the margin is really thin) and instead selling the way-overpriced 4080 and 4320 models which gouge you for a bigger HD.

Crap. I was literally going to buy a 4040 today until I saw this. Now I need to bend over and pay $400 for a measly 40 GB of storage or wait for the 4500 which will likely have a lot of features stripped.

Edit: Fixed glaring typo.

That is a bit steep!

Damn it... Shouldn't you be in a meeting or something?
