Fact: Traxxas has put together a "brushless ready" E-Maxx.
Fact: They TESTED it with dual brushless system and put out pic's of the tests.
Fact: Traxxas has NOT stated anywhere that it will be offering a full brushless system.

That's about all the facts. Everything else is wishfull thinking.

IMHO. Traxxas did the right thing from a business standpoint. They released a great machine at the same price point as the old Emaxx. Rather than tieing up more capital in design, and even more in inventory, they have given us something more to work with. There is no way they could sell a brushless EMaxx for under 500 bucks, which is quite a bit more than the vast majority of thier customers are willing to spend in one shot. MOST parents are going to choke on the 380 something its retailing at right now (and yes, I am assuming the the majority of RC's are purchased by parents for thier kids).
