Hatembr! Haven't seen that name for a while.
Hope you're doing alright!
As for pricing, in the UK here Digital Village have got it up for pre-orders @ £829, which is £370 less than the £1199 desktop TI.
Supposed shipping: March.
I don't think a TI Mk2 will be around for quite some time now (grrr), given that Access released a 2008 catalogue along with the Snow, showcasing all the TI range. Actually that might be a good thing, no rushed release like they did with the original TI.
Mk2 should be quality.

A ribbon-controller or XY-Pad might be nice, too, please! Thanks!
