huh? when i go to acube's online ship, i see that the SAM460cr is cheaper than the SAM460ex. the 1.1GHz version is 60EUR cheaper and the 1GHz version is 80EUR cheaper. the SAM460cr 1GHz, including AOS4.1 FE is only 469EUR. that seems a darn sight cheaper than the original SAM460ex boards were.

am i missing something?

again, that's just not the case. the SAM460ex 1.1GHz (link) is indeed $814.64. but the SAM460cr 1.1GHz (link) is $733.04. see? the SAM460cr is cheaper; it is not the same price. they never said the SAM460ex would get cheaper. they announced a new, cost-reduced version, the SAM460cr -- and that is cheaper.

edit: ah, you meant the cost of the AmigaOne 500 hadn't gone down. that's true; it hasn't. but there are plenty of other SAM460cr complete systems they offer that are cheaper.
