EEVBlog BM235 EOL with 121GW coming?

I keep seeing small quantities on Amazon and gouged eBay pricing plus all the buzz over the 121GW.  I'm just wondering if the BM235 is going to be around for the long run.

I don't see why not.

Certainly there are more features on the 121GW - but the BM235 isn't a slouch ... and there is a notable difference in price point.

Thanks.  I really want one but don't have the cash for it now but if they were going to fade away and just become hard to find and expensive, I would maybe splurge.

I don't believe the BM235 has been around for too long - so it's not as if we are anywhere near EOL from the manufacturer just yet.  Also, Dave has exclusive distribution rights for the BM235 in Australia - and his version carries the EEVblog branding, which you won't get from anyone else selling that model.
