A good indication of whether a new model is coming out is sales. Soon to be superceded models will be reduced so as to offload them before a new model is released.

the only one I remember is when the ipod mini was reduced to $299 then a better one for $299 was released, lol.

I don't remember any price drop before the new powerbooks were put out.

A better example would be that centrino notebooks are currently being marked down quite drastically to offload them before the July release of Centrino MkII (or whatever dicky name its been given).

my example was better cos it was ridiculous (i.e. old stock being sold for more than new)

Ceratinly more humourous.

Similarly apple sells old damaged (and since repaired) stock at the same price as new stock.
