Well, that IS good news. I really want a small, light unit for the tiny jobs I do at nursing homes and the like. This sounds like a good alternative, but you know I hate to wait. George - you mentioned two different prices for the 9k upgrades in your two posts - which is it? $59 or $99? Also, I guess they are not compatible between the two, are they? I need to decide if I want to upgrade the road unit or the studio unit. Decisions, decisions...! Any advice? Which would serve me better - live or studio?
