Hmmm. We know that the 8710 will have some improvements (we know a couple, but I don't think we know all of them and press releases 4 months before a product ships often don't mention all the changes) and we don't know the street price. So, jumping to the conclusion that it looks to be an overpriced clone seems like quite a jump to me.
I think the mistake of comparing street prices from current models to MSRP of upcoming models is one of the more common mistakes around the two digital FP forums. I think some people made the same mistake with the new LCDs last November and then a couple of them came in with almost identical street prices to the previous models.
