Being an early adopter of new products has several disadvantages and advantages.
Advantages: - Bragging rights to others who don't jump as quickly as you. - Discovery of product capabilities and early start of learning curve. - Use and advantage of ownership of tool not available to others. - You have another TOY.... Yea!!!!!!!!!! Disadvantages: - You get warts and all... - High Potential of required firmware/software updates to clear operational and functional issues. - Possibilities of hardware mods to correct sub-standard performance. I have done both, personally and professionally and it's palpable as long as you keep in mind the risk/reward of your decision.
