Is my 6141 Bell receiver considered old?

[rooster60]

Just was wondering from other Bell subscribers and their opinion.
I currently have a 6141 HD receiver from Bell and have had it for almost 5 years now.
Works great, awesome picture, etc.
Just wondering if it being 5 years old now is it considered old and should I look into getting the new 6400 receiver?
I cannot get a 9200 series because you need 2 lines going into the unit and the house is completely finished.

the only differences between the 6131 and 6400 are:

Added USB Port (that isn't even on, "Future Functionality")
Updated EPG
HDMI-Only

the rental and purchase prices for the 6400 are the same as the 6131.

The 6131 is considered old, Bell doesn't even list it on their website outside of the help pages.

Yup - and with any luck, they will turn it off and on and maybe change the channel.
