That is you should be asking yourself?!?

Come to grips with the answer and THEN ask your wallet how does it feel about that?!?

I would sell the classic and cop the 2kxl, I just got one again and paid $300.00
the slider is broke and only the ram is expanded but IMO it's much better than the 2k..
(sorry 2k heads)

aside from the built in compact flash, is it really worth paying so much more for a 2.5k? they seem essentially the same minus the compact flash and a few features. please correct me if I'm wrong, I've never actually used a 2.5k only read reviews and seen videos etc.

2.5k runs more programs

Im not too familiar with the 2.5k as I aim with my 4k but I have heard of people dropping their xls fro'em and never looking back

If you're gonna upgrade, upgrade big or add-on a new piece of gear. Go 4k or add something different to your arsenal...why make such a minimal upgrade?

Invest in your signal chain, new tables, new interface.
