Who wants a new Glock 30s

Today GLOCK, Inc. announced a new addition to its pistol lineup - the GLOCK 30S. The conceal-and-carry hybrid pistol features impressive stopping power consisting of a factory-made 36 slide on top of a 30SF frame. Its compact design and simple operation allow smooth drawing in a .45 caliber pistol. The 30S packs 10 rounds of .45 ACP in a package that fits the hands of most any user. The G30S is easy to use, easy to conceal and tough to contend with.
“The G30S platform has been more than a year in the making,” explained Josh Dorsey, GLOCK Vice President. “Our original request from the field - particularly from law enforcement - was to have a more concealable .45 that still carries 10 rounds, so we utilized the G30 SF frame after it was thoroughly tested, presented and accepted as the desired frame for the G30S.”
Well not today!  ::)  but recently, and it sounds like something I cant live without.  8)

I passed on the mdl 30 years ago when I bought my 36. I found the single stack grip to be more to my liking in the .45. Can't feel a significant difference in the mlds 30 and 30sf.

Oldshooter,
The 30sf has the slide width of the 36 and Glock's short frame grip. In my opinion, the sf model is not enough smaller to make it attractive to me.  I hear lots of people raving about it, so I may be missing something.
