That would be nice. I'm not necessarily holding my breath though.
Honestly, I learned an immutable fact years ago while trying to collect other things, like pool cues, guns, rare fly reels, the stock market, etc., and it's this:
More often than not, if you find something you really want, but you decide to wait for any significant period of time, the odds that thing will be there declines rapidly toward zero with every passing day.
In other words, if you can afford it, just buy it ASAP, because it won't be there when you finally decide that it's "a better time." This axiom has played out exactly in my life countless times, and I can't remember a time when I was right to wait. Either I end up having to spend the money elsewhere, or more commonly they just stop making the damned thing. Or they make it, but they change it in some way that makes it much less desirable, or whatever.
Personally, I'm hoping the "window" is going to be about 8 months to a year. And that the price drops a little.
