Digital BW, The Print

I don't mean to carry on rumors, but its been  on  dpreview printer forum by 
a number of people  of  receiving an email from Epson about a new pro 
printer that sounds interesting (smaller, sleeker styling, good price, 
etc.--no hint as to what print sizes altho' someone on another forum said he 
had seen posts about a Pro 3800 which sounds as though its perhaps somewhere 
between 2400 and 4800--and he said the suggested US price may  be 
$1000-1100).  Since I'm in the market for a new printer, this does interest 
me--the email from Epson said 9/27 (Photokina) so I guess we do just 
wait--altho' I'll be out of town for 2 weeks and don'tknow if I'll have 
internet or not.  I was hoping that perhaps someone else had received 
information about it also.
