Then again, they may just remove the PSR designation from the MOTL line up like they did the Tyros when they changed to the Genos. So maybe a new mini-me to the Genos will appear in that section; say a Half-Genos or Genos lite , mini - Genos lol. I personally doubt they will keep it the same as the existing PSR designation due to the fact of the 1. name change from the Tyros and 2. the part update model instead of a full new model. Yes, they are using up parts because of a bigger change in the MOTL models IMO. Allan _________________________ The problem is not the problem...The problem is your attitude to the problem.
