Any Coffee Lovers???

I was down at the supermarket last week picking up a can of Maxwell House Colombian blend and saw a stack of boxes labeled "Keurig 2.0"...There was a sign that read "$139.95, reduced from $159.95"...I suppose that explains the cash register ad I got...

Boxes have no diagrams or instructions...So i have no idea of how it works...But it looks like you load a coffee cartridge into it and hit the Go button...There was a half-hour TV 'infomercial' about the 2.0 but again, not much in the way of information, just two models gushing over how good it was and making dozens of cups of coffee...

They mentioned a 'carafe' output as well as cups, but didn't demonstrate it...During the 10 minutes I watched, until I couldn't stand them anymore...

I brew 16oz mugs in the morning, never less. I don't know if the cartridges are 8oz, or 12, or 16...Or what...

There didn't seem to be any stampede to buy them...

Last month I had decided to get in a supply of that LaVazza I liked. When I checked the coffee aisle, there were four different blends of LaVazza now...[pic below]...

So I put off buying any until I checked my pictures and knew which one I liked, so that yesterday, when grocery shopping, I would get the right one...

...And they didn't have that blend left on the shelf...Only two blends, Classico and Perfetto...

So, I got the Perfetto [another pic]...Not as good as the Gran Selezione, which was my original pick (the only LaVazza blend stocked then). It's not as 'tasty' as the Gran Selezione. Very fine granules, much finer than Maxwell House or Folgers. I'll use it up but not buy any more. Just have to keep an eye out for the 'green stripe'.
