Now that is a short product life cycle.  I wonder what the problems are.

Outback photo noted some profile problems as well as issues with the Glop.
See http://www.outbackphoto.com/printinginsights/pi033/Epson_R1800.html

Perhaps Epson wants to iron out these problems on the smaller printer before
putting more eggs in that technological basket.  From what I've seen of the
MIS version of glop, I'd move slowly on that front.  I wonder also if the
smaller dot size is an issue with more clogging or other problems.
