It was reviewed in the May 2007 issue of Sound on Sound Barry. Got the issue here - and to summarise - 003 now has word clock, extra headphone and monitor out, better preamps, extra/more control, ignition pack 2 worth having. Negatives - only 4 mic preamps, only 003R has ignition pack2, basically a remodeled 002 rather than a new product. So worth a look if you dont have 002 but maybe not worth an upgrade if you do.
From the conclusion: 'Digidesign have cleverly chosen to upgrade features that will benefit most users...[and so] make it easier to operate Protools using the control surface... definitely an improvement on 002 in all areas.' Looks pretty positive. If you have a subscription to SoS you can read the article online btw. One thing to consider though - if you don't wnat the improvements then an ex stock 002 should be marked down by loads now.
