Glad I didn't hold out for the new one that was coming along. I don't think this new model is going to change anything.

Wow that thing is sweet. If it had a bigger screen i would buy it right away.

Does anyone know if it's HD-based or DVD-based like the D3?

They do have some nice options. But I think Id take a 7" screen over a 5.8" So I still think the Z2 is the best option.

And a 30Gb hard drive -- How much can you really fit on an SD card?

Thats the same amount as the z2 and d3, i think actually a million more too, but dont quote me on it.

And its flash memory too, which means it loads faster than the 20gb of nav on the hard drive.
