who cares if they are PCI-X, we dont come close to the limits of PCI as is. |

Well if they did make a PCI Express version, we can surely be confident that they will find some way to hog that bus all up too. Receiving good drivers is just plain wishful thinking. |

I think that they've skipped the number 3 since it means death in japanese. (same for Canon's G4 camera.. they had G2, and G4 withot G3) |

i'm sure creative had this capability a long time ago, they are just stretching it for money. they've shown time after time that they dont care about their customers. |

"I think that they've skipped the number 3 since it means death in japanese." Uhm, that explains precisely why there will be a Playstation 3 in about 1.5-2 years...  |
