ReadyNAS release schedule/history
Is there anywhere that lists the release history for all the ReadyNAS product lines (going back to my NV)? I'd like to see the spread between product releases to know if I should wait for a new relea...

When I purchased my NV+ back in November 2007, it was the only product listed on the site. In early 2008, they released the Duo. In the 2+ years since, they have released the following:
- Q1 2010 - ReadySAS 4200 (2u rackmount x 12 drives - x86 multi-core)
- Q1 2010 - ReadyNAS 3100 (1u rackmount x 4 drives - x86 multi-core)
- Q4 2009 - ReadyNAS 3200 (2u rackmount x 12 drives - x86 multi-core)
- Q3 2009 - ReadyNAS 2100 (1u rackmount x 4 drives - x86 Tolapai)
- Q2 2009 - ReadyNAS NVX (pedestal x 4 drives - x86 Tolapai)
- Q4 2008 - ReadyNAS Pro (pedestal x 6 drives - x86 dual-core)
- Q1 2008 - ReadyNAS Duo (pedestal x 2 drive - sparc)
Here's a graphic walk down memory lane (with approximately release dates of the more recent models) and IIRC, the first ReadyNAS was released in 2004/05 (back when they were Infrant):
