Thanks for the information.

I had just almost made up my mind to buy the mx-3000 except, now I hear that a mx-3500 is coming out (possibly soon)? Does anyone have any information about when? I would hate to spend $1000 today only to find out that a newer version is coming out in a month or so.

Does anyone have any other reasons NOT to buy this remote (I've been told by my AD that they will give me the software)

I know I seem to be bouncing around alot and indecisive but, I really really hate buyer remorse and the larger the price tag the more remorse there is if I feel I made a poor choice so, anything I can do to prevent that pain is worth the effort.

Thanks
