I am pretty convinced that SONY had to make some changes to be able to simply differentiate itself from Minolta, because the Minolta 5600HS D is identical to the HVL-F56AM and the Minolta 3600HS D is identical to the HVL-F36AM.

SONY added "flash groups" the HVL-F58AM & HVL-F42AM flashes. It's a different approach to using wireless, but, personally, I haven't found much use for it. The A900 seems to be more comfortable with these new flashes. The new '58's rotating flash is a novel idea ... but, again, non-traditional ... making for unique issues.
