    There sure is a 100. They initially had plans for a less expensive unit to come out with the ACS10 did but it was canceled to my understanding. I woner what changed their mind. They would wait until I shell out the money for the 10 then decide to offer something less expensive.

    It still isn't clear how the storage works on the 100, it looks to me you buy the aACS then buy your own HD?

    I know one thing, if it's performance is close to the ACS10 others in the 100's price will be hurting.

    We have the A30 coming. This looks like a great unit. People are looking for that all in one ripping solution.
