The C652 series, the black units are split apart, the developer and the drum unit separate, and the developer is constantly refreshed with new developer from the "toner bottle". Life span on the dev unit is 1,140,000 prints, while the drum unit is 295K. The colour IUs between 120-135K depending on the model speed. This is pretty significant over previous generations of our machines.
The C360 series, all the dev units and drum units are separate, the black dev unit, like in the C652 series, is also fresh exchange developer system, yields 570K, while each dev unit is 114K. The drum units, black yields between 70-120K depending on model speed, while the colour drums are between 55-90K. Not near as good as the 652, but still pretty damn good. The older C350 could never attain that life rating.
I have yet to hear anything about IU enhance on these series, but I would not be surprised if that is in the works.
Generally however, I have noted that the life of many consumables of the newer tuxedo series machines, that generally when they reach EOL, they really are at the end of their life and should be replaced regardless.
