I really hope you have some inside info. That Oct 24th date seems pretty specificmanufactures typically wait sometime between stopping production on the old model and begining production of the new one until they release pricing and specs. Probably because they don't want to hurt sales for the old model. Retooling the equipment usually takes at few months with some short long production runs before kicking it to high gear (December). October 24th is my guess they will release pricing based off past releases.
