A summary of what I have learned from reading several hundred (many incorrect,BTW) messages on this topic: For the US: 3630 vs. 3650 has to do with distribution channel, not to do with what is `in the box'. There are some (slight) variations in packaging but _in the US_ one set of numbers was for the Circuit City/Best Buy chain type stores, and the other was for more conventional distriubtion channels. When you move out of the US, what is `in the box' may vary country to country (sometime there is USB, sometimes only Serial), but---unfortunately---this appears to have _nothing_ to do with the 3630 vs 3650 label. So, the moral of the story is: Don't assume much from numbering, at least on the 3630/3650 front. The current US labelling suggests that the 3635 is a 3630/3650 + CF Sleeve + Some software, while the 3670 is the 64mb machine, but I wouldn't bet much on any particular `outside the US' labelling.
