The Pro 5 would be the Pro 4's replacement. But they chose to go belt drive with the Pro 5.

Where as the sprint 2 was belt, and now the Sport 3 is shaft.

I guess it makes more sense this way, the sport 3 is going to get used more on dirty parking lots, where the Pro 5's are going to see mostly carpet.
