Voyager series 2nd edition discussion thread

[PANAMATIK]

I do not understand, why HP made only a limited edition of the HP15C.

The prices in ebay for these items are very high now, sometimes 5 times obove the original price. Could anyone tell, who could have an interest at HP, to keep these prices high. Why not make a unlimited edition like the HP12C, until the demand will decrease? Or did they buildt the limited edition just as a gift for collectors without getting some little profit? Or do they fear, that it will be used for repurposing?
