It is absolutely true, I am a dealer for Iridium and just got done taking a look at it. It is lighter and somewhat thinner, but slightly wider. It looks more rugged and somewhat like a handheld VHF, and should retail for about 30% more than the 9555 (which will not be phased out but simply compliment it).
