I recall a few months back that some wouldn't upgrade to SB but would wait for SB-E. It's clear that if you need to en/de code, unzip and use it for other applications that require a few more HW threads the SB-E would be a good choice as it's very conservative on power consumption (for what it is). However, as for pricing, it doesn't come cheap.
So, the results are in, will you still buy it now that we know what SB-E is all about? Or will you upgrade to something else?
