John,

I'm also planning to purchase a 396, probably at OSH.  Is your 496 comment really true? Do you have any information on a 496 and what it's capabilities will be as opposed to the 396? Any info on a timetable?

I'm sure that there are others in my same situation. How about some data to help us out. Thanks
