I just bought 2 DC40's and I've had them out twice.  The first thing I did when I got them was update the software to the current version 3.6.  Can't tell you much about the max range yet but so far I like them.  I lost signal on the DC30's a little quicker than the 40's with the small rubber antenna.  I have lost signal with the 40's with the dogs in the box but not when the dogs are out hunting.  I have probably only been one mile from the dogs with the roof mount antenna and the 40's worked great.  
The charger is 100 times better and the straps don't stink like the 30's.
I wouldn't get rid of your 30's to buy 40's but from here on out I would say buy 40's.  I think most of the problems they had at the beginning were software issues.  If you get them you need to make sure they AND the Astro have the latest update.
