Title says it all I am wanting to know what the differences are between the 1604, 1614, 1624.

Is the the 1604 a good buy now or not and at what price would it be a good buy?

The 1604 and 1614 both use a DX5 head, which is also the same used in the 1204/1304.
The 1604 was rated at 145 sq/ft/hr
The 1614 was rated at 183 sq/ft/hr
The 1604 has the ink cartridge slots sticking out the back, the 1614 has them vertical.

The 1624 is a whole new animal. Looks similar, but I have been told they've fixed a lot of issues in the older units.
Uses a new style head and boasts speeds up to 313 sq/ft/hr.
Also, has the ability to attach the SpectroVue device which allows you to accurately calibrate your colors/output.
