John, Exactly. I went over and checked it out, it does look improved a great deal. Haven't watched the video yet.
They always come out with a high price, after the market shock wears off and they've sold it to everyone they can think of, then the CD's are just more tea saucers for them :) Thats always been there philosophy it seems, bleed every penny out and the price keeps dropping, especially after a newer version comes out.
If they are listing 1495 right now on the site for 2D, that means it can be bought for, well you know how much :)

So far only price I have seen is 2D from $1495
But on the same site V21 pro is advertised at $5370 retail, sale price of $2995 but I know of many who paid less than 1K for it and in some case a lot less than that.
Let the dust settle first.
