Why was this model discontinued? Is there an updated model?

We can only guess why... Odd that this device is still up on the TDK web site though... Looks like the new version will be the TREK 360 coming Spring of 2014 There are many of these type devices on the market now so maybe they have the new version up to specs for full wireless use. I will also say that since the V513 is NOT wireless as they advertised it to be and needs to be plugged into an AC power source.... that might be a reason for it to fail in the market. Don't like the fact that you have to have the V513 plugged into an AC outlet, but do like the sound and performance otherwise. If you have to be limited by one wire you might as well get their other 77000015410 Sound Cube "wired" version that has more features. Just my opinion of course. They also have a couple wireless units; http://www.amazon.com/TDK-Life-Record-Wireless-Boombox/dp/B008VMT2DK/ref=sr_sp-atf_title_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1391785333&sr=8-1&keywords=tdk+Wireless+Boombox http://www.amazon.com/TDK-Life-Record-Bluetooth-Wireless/dp/B00BBA3QU4/ref=sr_sp-btf_title_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1391785956&sr=8-2-fkmr1&keywords=tdk+TREK+360

out of production, but still in demand i assume. it seemed one of those rare "stand out" models in an otherwise so-so lineup. so i guess it's priced like a collector's item. mine has since failed, and i'd replace it with same -- IF it were still available at original price.

Bob....I have no idea ! There are so many models out now that I have not been able to figure out which is the newest ! I do know however, that is as good as you can get. I have one and it does everything I want and need !

We know, the manufacturer has discontinued for unknown reasons. Sorry about that.

I do not see that any where besides this description that it has been discontinued. It is still listed on the Griffin Technology website as a current product. If for some reason this listing happens to go away you can always just search for Griffin iMic and find the product.

Contacted customer care. They said this item has been discontinued, and have no plans to re-manufacture the product in the new future.

Hi. Price has gone up. They will not make this model any more and once they are gone they are gone. Thank you

No, these are discontinued. It's a shame, too. They really are great lapdesks. If you have one that's not working, check out my review for a repair guide.

This is a discontinued model, but yes, similar newer ones are just as reliable and easy to use in your case.

Hi, I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. We are not sure if this item has been discontinued already since we haven't heard back any feedback from manufacturer. Meanwhile, you can always visit Amazon to get update about this item. Thanks and have a great day.

I was passing time and looked up this TV on the Sony site to see what the cost is now because I bought it in December '08. I really like it and was surprised to see that Sony has discontinued it. It's disappointing to find my expensive new TV already obsolete. Anyone know why that would be, especially so soon? It's gotten good reviews.

We don't show Model #000-11051-001 as being discontinued (nor does Lowrance's product page for the Elite-7 HDI Gold Combo). Could just be a misprint.

So sorry. I don't know. But I would guess that they are phasing out the one I wrote the wonderful comments about... and replacing it with a newer model. The reason I say that, is when I bought my 2nd one thru Amazon... it said 'only one left'... Hope that helps. nancy

This model is obsolete - out of production, outdated and you should look for a more recent one.

I have no idea. I bought mine in 2008, through Amazon but didn't know it was discontinued. I would suggest looking on the internet and putting in the model number and as much info as you can and see if anyone has any in stock. Good luck.
