I believe the MkII has the same MSRP as the MkI i.e, $299. They'll find it difficult to sell the Mk1's now so you can expect to see it heavily discounted to unload stock, but it's difficult to see how you could criticize Atmel for producing a better version of a product, selling it for the same price and obsolescing the old one. Sounds reasonable to me... - Scanned for viruses by MessageLabs on behalf of Tesco Corporation -
