We've already shipped Atari 2600+ with updated cart sockets to Plaion US, which supplies Amazon and to Atari who supply Atari.com.

 

They both probably have some inventory of rev 1 which is now being mixed with rev 2 with the upgraded socket.

 

Ahh that is some awesome news, thanks for the update. I hope Amazon can somehow point out which rev you may receive, bit of a lottery else!

If they have the same UPC, which they probably do, then Amazon will not be able to differentiate. 

That would be a shame, I know the boxes will be marked somewhere as rev 2 but as you say, I don't think Amazon will list them as such. This will probably mean obtaining from an ebay listing as a verified rev 2 unit and price scalped accordingly :( sighs

I doubt they'll bring a premium, more likely the 1st revision's value will be lessened. There are plenty of them and new ones being made, plus the 7800+ is also available.
