Is that true, really? Out of the box, the 50g was a slightly enhanced 49g, which was itself a slightly enhanced 48G. I loved the addition of infinite precision integers that the 49 brought (but hated the keyboard) and use them often on my 50g. I found it eminently usable out of the box.

It's just a quibble, but the 49G was more than slightly enhanced. Memory was greatly expanded & the exorbitantly expensive memory cards for the 48GX became redundant. How many 1 MByte cards were ever sold?
