    You don't lose ANY ports with the new model.

    The number of firewire ports have been halved.

    The mini display port adapters for DVI and VGA are $30 apiece. A Mini-DP to dual link DVI for the 30" display is $99. Mini-DP adapters for RCA/S-video out, HDMI, and the full size displayport are not available. Whether Apple or a third party plans to make them is anyone's guess.
