There is not a 2K difference, it's about a 1K difference from the current top of the line OQO to the new one. They have a three tiered line- good, better, best, where good is the one that hovers just over 1000 bucks, and their top of the line had hovered about 2K.
And on the note of Wimax, according to the OQO CEO Dennis Moore, they were not shipping or even announcing support for WiMax, just providing a technology demo. To me it sounded like a preview of the world to come in a year to with any luck. He said they had two things at the show- the announcement of the 64GB SSD and outdoor readable screen devices shipping, and a technology preview of Wimax to demonstrate future possibilities.
On a somewhat related note, I personally don't understand how you can buy 32GB USB Flash drives for about 200 bucks, but have to pay upwards of 500 dollars for that same thing in an SSD Drive. It seems the disparity grows as you go to the 64GB SSD. Perhaps there is a different grade/speed of flash being used?
