Thing is Diki, there is no point for the guy I deal with to make this up, there are no G70's (new) at the Roland warehouse, only those already in stores' inventory. (and none at the store I deal with!!) So that being the case, it made what they were saying all the more plausible..

I have to note Mikes post where he pointed out that Roalnd didnt actually say they were still being MADE, just that its stilll the CURRENT model!! If its still the current model , it maybe does not bode well for a replacement any time soon.

Everything is the 'current model' until the day it's replacement comes out

There is no way to infer anything that Roland are, or are not, going to do, from what they are currently doing. What will be, will be, and what won't, won't... (pretty profound, huh?! )

In the meantime, for all the T2 players getting ready to jump ship, for all the Korg and Ketron users thinking of changing ships, I can only say... I still haven't heard anything out there with the balls, the construction, and the sounds to better my G70 at what I use it for...

Over three years and counting, and nothing in the slightest of any temptation whatsoever. Not bad, Roland, not bad!

Hopefully only 3 weeks or so to go before we know the truth.
