New Saltiga Surf Reel- any good?

The Daiwa.com site says that there is a new reel coming out called the Saltiga Surf which is supposed to be washable with a sealed drag and is lighter than the regular Saltiga- at 18 ounces. Picture attached. Has a 4500, 5000, 5500 and 6000 model sizes. (the 6000 model holds 730 yards of 30 pound braid !) I saw somewhere that its supposed to be around $400 but who knows. Only makes sense if it is less than a regular saltiga.

Anyone hear anything about it or what it may go for? Supposed to be out in October.

I should be out fishing not looking at new reel porn.
