So if you can get a version 1.x clearance or demo for under
200 plus the upgrade would be about the same cost as
a new one.  So if you can talk a salesman into giving you a
demo 1.x for around 150 bucks you'd have a worthwhile deal.

I priced a new 1.x at 209 so that would not match a new 2.4 at 221
