No problem! I resisted buying into a handheld until now so I'm happy to
be part of the herd chasing this one. I also resisted buying a multiple
component system until now - just hoping something like this would
appear soon.

Did the 395 and 296 ever come down in price before rumors of the 396
began to spread? I was staring pretty hard at the backup AI function
but the price never budged after a year or two...

You guys keep leading the way, and in a year if I decide the 396 is
worth trading up to, the price will be nicely down...
