Price changes don't mean anything one way or the other; people tend to see what they want to see. Nord are a company who don't give out any information about new models until they are ready to do so, and nobody - absolutely nobody - has any advance information.
Just to make it clear: my post was basically another joke on the C2D2-Star Wars stuff, I'm not pretending to infer anything on Clavia's releases and I don't want to fool anybody!
RedLeo and orco, you're totally right, prices go up and down according to fluctuations in the market, exchange rates and the warehousing needs of the distributors and individual shops.
For example, just a few months ago prices for the Stage2 dropped because everybody was expecting the new model to be released at NAMM.
Then the Electro 5 was launched instead, and Stage2 prices went back to normal. Now the EX has been released and prices of the "old" Stage2 are down again...
To make a long story short, Ruud: no way of knowing.
The only hard fact is that right now the Thomann price is the lowest it's ever been. If you need an organ clone and have already made up your mind on the C2D, my suggestion is to go for it.
For what we know -that is, nothing at all- the new model could come out tomorrow, in two years, or never (nothing is forever, during its history Clavia has abandoned a few product lines...)
