Nearly two years ago, Dremel introduced the 4000 series rotary tool, a high-end upgrade to their 400 XPR. The 300 series tools, including the 395 MultiPro, remained a solid mid-range choice.
Dremel is soon coming out with a new 3000 series rotary tool, which offers several interesting improvements at a more affordable pricepoint. The Dremel 3000 features an EZ Twist nose cap that can be used as a separate collet wrench, 1.2 amp power rating, and a shorter and more ergonomic design.

Although it looks like the 4000 will be the “best” version, and the 3000 the “good/great” version, I’m looking forward to trying it out as well. I’m not a fan of single-switch rotary tools, but will reserve judgement until I check one out in person.
