Hi,
 
  I am being offered one of these for sale.  Is there any real downsides to this version above the power fix, digital output fix and missing ethernet module versus version 2.2 ?
 
  I take it there is no way to add ethernet to this version (not biggest problem for me)  but any other downsides should be aware of ?
 
  Thanks

  You can have ethernet through the SD card slot and the SDnet driver. you will need to source an micro SDcard breakout adapter of some form.

Edu Arana makes one.

Apparently I have a 2.1 as well, yeah I say it's a good buy. I didn't realize they added an additional port on later models.
