I have a 1290, and am thinking of getting an 1160 for B&W work - have my sights on the 4000 but it's a case of seeing which way the wind blows first... BTW, Mwords still comes out the cheapest, at about �30 less than the cheapest I've found - plus they've moved recently and are now just a 3 minute walk for me.
