Default Difference between Futaba 12FGA and 12ZAP

Hi.
What is the difference between these two radios? The FGA lists for $999 at Tower and the ZAP for $1399. Niether come with servos, both have the same RX and TX functions. The ZAP has a 7.4V 2200 Mah Lipo tx pack where the FGA has a 7.2V 1700 Mah NiMh pack. Other than that I can't tell the difference or explain the $400 price gap. Any help would be great.
Thanks!!
Dom

I have spent a fair amount of time looking over the feature comparison and reading various treads on this topic and I am struggling with the price difference as well. I keep thinking I am going to read something that is going to make me understand why the price difference is so large and the features seem so similar. The screen size on the 12Z is bigger, the battery on the 12Z is bigger and it has a few more features, but that doesn't seem to explain the $400 difference in price.
