I think that TOTL arrangers are going to price themselves out of existence. It's already getting to the point that only well-heeled ol' folks can afford them. When it gets to the point that the manufacturers can no long get 4500-5000.00 for a machine that should be priced around 1800.00, R&D will cease and they (TOTL) will disappear like the dinosaurs. BOTL and lower MOTL will continue with BOTL being the last to go. This will be the likely scenario unless some company like Casio comes out with a blockbuster that sets a new standard for price and technology. Could happen.....probably won't. Why? Casio wouldn't be motivated to do it without a large or potentially large American market. That market won't exist until such a machine becomes available......therefore, Catch22. JMO.
