That's what I'm seeing on social media. Just waiting on the thread to launch here on the XCE.

Re: Flex Visit - Bob Eichelberg visits Bob McKee
XFE 7-15mm-150 Free Float DA
XCE 9-8mm-150 Direct Driven DA
The latter an evolutionary approach to the 3401, runs cooler and is lighter me thinks. If so unfortunate no long throw direct drive

It's been over three house since the announcement was made. You'd think some press would have published something by now. Is it one machine? Is it two? Are they new models? Do they replace anything? I'm slightly disappointment by the lack of info on this right now.

Already prepared to be disappointed. Was hoping for a long throw 3401

I'm not so sure about a long throw gear driven machine. I bet it would be a handful to keep under control. Imagine a 6.5" pad with 15mm of orbit. It would probably wear you out.
Seeing that these two machines are identical, I'm sure the Flex engineers experimented with a 15mm gear driven machine. Most likely returned less than favorable buffing experience. However I could be wrong.
Im glad that they updated the 3401.

Guess I'm getting a PE-14 as I already have a Rupes 15 and 3401.
