Re: [Digital BW] Re: Evolution of the Epson 4000?

2005-05-02 by Carl Schofield

Seems like the only new things are one additional black ink, new  
firmware, and a driver.  Despite these simple mods, I doubt that  
current 4000 owners will be offered an upgrade (sidegrade?) path.   
Smells a lot like the business model Gretag is also using with their  
"new" i1 Photo package.  Keep the same hardware, add some new  
firmware features and re-package as "new and improved".
