Let's use the oldest incentive on earth - money. For example, an engineer friend in adjacent office thought nothing of paying some $700 US last year for a NIP 48GX. He's not even using it yet. Hoping to keep the old unit going for whatever time left. But - now he has a spare. If HP were to do a remake of the 48 with improvements they'd sell every unit for whatever price they put on it.

They probably really would sell one (maybe even two) to everyone here, but that's sadly still not enough. The problem is, even when counting ALL of us, it's not a significant enough market to make an investment large enough to make an improved 48GX.
