Maybe something to do with compliance to GDPR? Just a thought, maybe a long one...

This struck me as a bit odd - an EU3458A 8.5 digit multimeter. I thought at first that perhaps it had been re-engineered to use lead-free solder, but on reading the description, that's not the case. https://www.keysight.com/en/pd-2831253-pn-EU3458A/digital- multimeter-8-digit-for-eu-sales-only?nid=-536902435.1217937&cc=GB&lc=eng The Keysight website says ======= Notice for European Union Customers: This non-RoHS product has been placed on the market prior to the compliance deadline and continues to be made available on the EU market under product numbers EU3458A / EU3458AX. Please contact Keysight Sales for quotation and ordering. Keysight will continue service and support for this product throughout worldwide support life. ========= I can't see what is the point of giving it a new part number. But at least is dismisses some of the myths that used 3458As would go up in value in the EU, since it would be impossible to buy a new one.
