single PSU: idle 127W (my assumption when not fully utilized), max 172W
dual PSU: idel 168W, max 204W

How's ease of management on these? Or, rather, how's ease of management on HP switches in general? Anyone have any experience with these before?
If you know IOS then Procurve is pretty easy. Trunking is the biggest day to day you would need to know. Otherwise for this Edge switch its pretty straightforward.
The 6600 is a good value switch. You will need Procurve id'd sfps, as generics won't work. There is no generic override like on Cisco.
I prefer the 3500 and 6200 to this one but for the price its good.
These will take DAC and LC-LC sfp+. You need Procurve id'd transceivers. HP id'd transceivers won't work. There is a difference. Only the very latest HP id'd cables transceivers might work. Stick with Procurve from helink.
These prices will always drop over time. I'd say you'd have trouble finding 4 10gbe ports for the price.this is a good time to buy or waiting for the next time?
I am worrying on idle power consumption, mucho energia wasted for SOHO/Home user.
With 10gbe ports and a older switch power usage will be higher. There are less power hungry switches but they will cost you more.
This should have a lifetime warranty.
On the over-subscription, it only applies when going 10G port to 1G port. In that case, 28.8Gbps is enough to feed the 1G ports on the device. When going 10G to 10G, that's direct wire speed. This is more of an issue with the older modular switches, where you did need to balance speed between cards. Port to Port on the same card is fine though.
