I wonder if 3520 --> 3540 is possible.... Just out of curiosity.

I don't think so. The 3530 supposedly used a different chipset than the 3520. I'm betting the 3540 is the same way.

Ian, the 3520 already has a different chipset then the 3500 ?

Am I right?

Some Modifiers think so and already started getting serious about it.
