I'm late to the discussion, but I keep talking myself out of the pricy blender upgrade.
I've got a KitchenAid that was well reviewed by America's Test Kitchen some years ago, and it still works quite well.
Do I want a fancy blender? YES!!! I want that sort of speed control. Not a huge deal, really, but I'm wanting it.
FWIW, I do have a newer food processor, (Cuisinart) that I really do use. I guess in general it does the sort of stuff I'd want, so the super fine puree/snow thing is not really essential for my cooking needs.
