Does any any care that Canon launched a 600EX with optical wireless along side the 600EX-RT?

the 600EX doesn't seem to be a worldwide thing....
I don't think it will be available (through normal channels) in North America...
and I'm more interested in that than the radio stuff...

Sorry, it had not occurred to me that this thread was about two different models.

Perhaps the 600EX (sans RT) will use the old optical technology, but will be able to control up to 5 groups of 15 flashes, as long as they are also 600EX units?

no, unfortunately, 5 groups are only possible with radio.
