We can only get the Juki TL98P over here in Europe and I became the proud owner of one just a couple of weeks ago. Now getting ready for a trip to the States so won't be doing much until I get back but I am looking forward to cultivating a good relationship with her! I am not too sure what the differences between the models are but I didn't have the option. I do hope you enjoy using your new baby as much as I intend enjoying mine.
