One economic aspect of new modules might be also to open a new market 
with a new target group. I think there are a lot of people, who want 
some gear with advanced functions like available in the modular world, 
but who do not want to have the standard rack-based modular setup.

I know: This requires to change the basic construction principle, which 
offers more possibilities for a standalone usage of the modules. The 
"beauty case" is a good beginning, but I think a table top housing like 
used by the mfb Kraftzwerg or like the flame clockwerk
(occasionally both in one picture here: 
http://www.sequencer.de/pix/fricke/mfb_synth3.jpg) would be great.
I know this requires modules with pcbs mounted not rectangular, but 
parallel to the front - but the times for changes will come sooner or 
later anyway ;-)
