I bought my 2000 new at about the same price. Then turned around 6 months later
and bought the 2100 for me and 3-4 more for our team.
The 2000 was my dime. the 2100 was part of my bonus. The only thing I miss is
not getting that way cool stand that looked like a pc board holder. I saw it in
the Newton store near central park and nowhere else.
