What's silly about that? As far as I can tell, there are only three major differences between a MarkI and a MarkII: The volume knob; Ethernet; and the front panel. And of the three, the volume knob is by far the biggest enhancement.
(yeah, I know, Frank and some of the other Linux gurus might be pretty stoked by the ethernet thing, but as far as day to day use as a music player the volume knob has to take top billing IMHO.)
