And the two store managers that told me at different locations was that 2015 was the target

Hopefully the new X-metals won't be a Lux-a-fied shell of the old ones. It would be interesting for someone with metallurgical knowledge to test new vs. old to determine whether or not the alloy has been cheapened.

I will have my brother in law do it.

they will be known as Y-metals....because you will wonder Y they were made to replace the x metals (something like the half x)

I doubt they will come back....with them making frames in China and Lux at the helm...don't hold your breath...Nothing good out of China except the food...

If there is a cheaper way to make them or with cheaper materials, then this is the way they will be made. Also if something resembling an Xmetal shows up I bet it won't have the flexi X nose pieces that are going to require servicing.

I doubt they will come back...

And you'd be wrong...

They won't be like the old metals, different style, materials, etc, but they will be back and will be interesting.

That's what Hans said, right before he went to Intel.

Which def sucks, but I'm sure they're already developed. I've seen pics from over a year ago
