Still, EBay will be cheaper than buying them new. It's not such a big deal for the SB3, since it doesn't add any features over the SB2, and I can be confident that any firmware advances will also apply to my existing SB2's. However, the SB4 next year (start the rumours already) will probably follow the new form factor, and if it adds new features I'll miss out. Also, I guess that the new vertical board arrangement with right-angle sockets would make it hard to re-case in a lower profile box without replacing the sockets. -- The biggest problem encountered while trying to design a system that was completely foolproof, was, that people tended to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.
