Andy, do you know something that the rest of us don't  know?
 
Not much. All I wanted to say was that I'm sure that when Streetly have  
finalised specification and price they'll let us know. They have a right to  
promote their new baby in any way they deem fit, best of luck to them. I know  
above everything, they want it to succeed for obvious reasons, and to do that  it 
will have to offer something different to what is currently available  
anywhere on the planet!
I guess had they just simply gone for an updated m400 we would have  known 
all about it long before now, after all they could probably build those  in 
their sleep!
I'm sure that their plan is to produce a machine, note the word  "machine" 
not "sampler". That will not only blow our minds, but obviously will  be so 
"different" that it will generate sales (after all at the end of the day  MS and 
JB need to make a living) from a world-wide market that seems to still  have an 
appetite for things that have a "retro" tag whilst still being  practical 
and, dare I say it Iconic. Also, I'm sure they would love it if a  few on this 
list might did deep into their pockets, as I'm sure some  have already have.
Cheers.
