I want the new one to go on sale. I think it will be offered as a free tool with a battery kit or other set. The upcoming holiday sales were leaked apparently. The newer one has a more premium die cast body instead of the plastic housing.

Kind of disappointed that it's still only a 1/4" collet. I have a cheap set of 1/4" bits, but all my higher-quality ones (Whiteside, Freud, etc.) are 1/2".

No dice at local HD in Austin area; marked down, but only marked down to $136 (which is still more than Amazon right now...)

For HD not in a long time. just shows inventory count and if clearance or not.
For me Lowes inventory and pricing has been way off recently as well.

I don't believe there is any trim router that takes 1/2 bits. You need a full size router.

I looked around a bit, and it looks like Milwaukee might make the only battery 1/2" router.

Porter Cable used to make a cordless full sized router, but I think that was before Black and Decker bought the company. It's a shame what they did with Porter Cable, too.
