it isn't a digipak this time...it's the same 2-disc keep case, along with a square-bound book and cd soundtrack all housed inside a flimsy-looking slipcase. i say flimsy because all five copies i saw on the shelves today were dented up at the corners rather heavily.

Alright smarmies, I'll bite the bullet and ask then . . . what are the differences in the Region 1 and 2? (And does R4 have the same as R2?)

Just a heads up....
The PQ on the R1 disc is MUCH BETTER than the R2 disc.
You'd think they'd be the same transfer but they're not, the R1 is noticeably sharper and clearer with much better blacks. R2 looks at times almost laserdisc like with a much softer picture.
So go for R2 if you have to have dts, but R1 if you want the best PQ possible.
