    If it's an entire system replacement (R1->R2) it should be a new one. I got a new one as well as many others. Dunno, however if it's valid for R1 to R1 replacement.

    Yes entire system..seems to be a secret about what really go's on..from you been approved for a replacement to its shipped, lol. Almost no one knows for sure. Thought I'd ask since some people have been thru this several times. ;)
