It's still frustrating. We already _have_ the hardware -- we had our
N4000 up and into production the week after the EOL announcement, and we
had our A400 up for our developers by the end of January 2002 -- but our
  A400 is still crippled. It's got a 440Mhz chip that is scaled back to
110Mhz. Why not offer those of us who've already contributed to the
revenue stream a 'performance kicker' and allow that box to operate at
the full 440Mhz clock speed?
