FO&A,

Look for these "NIB" Grundig Satellit 800s on eBay within two weeks )

I wonder where they came from originally and what the 'wholesale' price of
the 800 actually is.


DX ACE,

One 'story' that I heard (read) was that these were an ITEM that
was not selling and this sale was a "Dead Stock Clearance" by
the Discovery Channel. {This sounds possible.}

Another 'story' out there is that Grundig North American (Eton Corp.)
is Dumbing the Grundig Satellit 800 M; "Because" they are getting
ready to release a newer radio. {This is less likely.}

NOTE: The Eton "Elite" E1 XM Radio has been 'rescheduled' for
release in the 'last quarter' (OCT-NOV-DEC) of 2004. Then a
replacement (upgrade) for the current Grundig Satellit 800 M
would most likely scheduled for 2006.

FWIW: The Grundig Satellit 800 M 'replacement' would carry
the Eton "Elite" brand name and should feature Digital Radio
Mondiale (DRM) Broadcast Technology.
