thanks but "soon" doesnt mean much....

well this issue is somewhat different as you talk about something that is already there...though I agree with you that % aren't good for EQs it's nothing to do with the fact that some of the pod HD got new amp models... leaving the hd500 by the wayside...as I said previously, line6 always made it clear that all pods are equal so to speak..and so far there are (as soon as the update comes out that is)

I'd guess the SLO amp and whatever else the 300/400 units got in their updates will probably be added.

yes it will, that was what I was asking about and it's been confirmed.

If not all expectations are achieved, does that mean the unit many have had like the gentleman posting here has been using all this time is now rendered useless or unworthy of keeping?

if you buy a unit on the sole premise that it will (one day) be update and will (perhaps) eventually be updated to be the way you want it to be...then you have a screw loose lol

if you believe the unit is useless, the few updates that Line6 have release won't change your mind...so you'll be better off selling/trading it for something else

but you're drifting away..what you're talking about is another matter altogether and it has very little (if anything at all) to do with my first post that was about making sure Line6 didn't change their mind about all 3 PODs offering the same content.
