My dealer told me last Friday that a new KN7000 was on the way, but couldn't get any info on the introduction date or even any new features. There was mention of a mass storage device, but he couldn't find out if it was a HD or a CD-RW. Either one would make me consider trading in. One can only hope. Maybe an onboard computer that could tell me when I'm doing something wrong and make suggestions to correct my ignorance. Beam me up, Scottie!
