Agreed, except for certain instances, I wanted the bluetooth.  The other 
difference, which is no biggie, is that when you purchase the standard you get 
a 2GB SD card, whereas when you purchase the XT, you get an 8GB SD HC card.

But, unless you're going to use blue-tooth, I doubt it is worth the extra 
money.  The radio tuner is about what'd you would get on the BrailleNote, 
maybe just slightly more sensitive.  And, you can always put a 4GB SD card in 
a standard for about $20.

The only difference between stadnard and XT is that XT comes with
bluetooth audio, 4 GB of built-in storage, and an FM radio. For that,
you pay $135 extra (more when the prices go up). From the accounts I'm
reading, seems people are having some small issues with XT. Nothing
insurmountable, but IMO those features aren't worth $135. They aren't
to me, anyway, which is why I bought the standard version.
