> Evolving technology means they are continually developing new and better technology. IMHO, it is really much too soon to jump to the conclusion they are following the path of planned obsolescence. Sometimes a new technology just evolves so quickly the turn around time is very rapid. Turn around being when the next thing issues from R&R. Which is why it is a good idea to wait a while with a really new technology -- wait until new developments come at a bit of a slower pace. It doesn't matter if it is an evolving technology like computers and digital cameras, or a mature technology like automobiles and televisions, obsolescence is obsolescence. Manufacturers love evolving technology, as they can make products obsolete as fast as they want, and have a valid excuse to hide behind. William Robb
