(Finally!) pulled the trigger this morning on the 3808. I justified it by realizing: 1- I'll get something back when selling the old one 2- As long as the HDMI is 1.3, I'm not likely to see some major technology change that will make it obsolete for a few years 3- Financially, I CAN right now... I don't always have that opportunity.
Thanks to all for their help. Sorry I was a bit "needy" on this one!
