Thaks Daniel. I found a hardware store in my town that had the same
information. Looks like Porter-Cable is discontiuing the 347K and the
743K in favor of the MAG series. The main advancement is the keyless
blade change. Looks like there's an improvement in the dust
collection, too. As you pointed out, the electric brake is also
available on the MAG series. Oh yea, the MAG series is lighter.
I think the MAG series is more expensive, too.

There is a 347K which does not have an electric brake, and the 325MAG
which does have an electric brake. And there are corresponding
old-style and new-MAG with and without brake left-blade models too.
