Just a little update . . . the 2100 was ordered today - I had to go with it

And yes, Florida is very flat, but, there are many trails with man-made hills - of course, nothing like Boone, but nonetheless, hills. Also, there's a great ride on Key Biscayne (and the bridge leading to it). Most cyclists can be found training there.

I'll let you know when I receive the bike - should be about 7-10 days.

Again, thank you so very much for your wonderful responses.
