"think that Rolands new XV synth will cause a lot of controversy and will cause people to drop their Trition or whatever else they are using.
Judging by that new VA-7, I wouldn't be surprised if the new XV workstation included a huge screen, variphrase technology, a slot for JP expansion, dynamic articulation reverbs and much more. Something like this would easily knock the Triton out of the water."
I don't know about that. It will be a nice synth, but a Triton beater? Probably not.
The Triton already has the best interface around. The Variphrase is pretty much a gimmick, and the other features you mention are already eclipsed by the Triton's effects and sounds.
Right now Triton is king, and the way these machines are set up, they will be king for a long time, much like the Kurzweil expandable synths.
Kurzweil and Korg are in their own realm now.
