Subject: [ukha_d] X-10 to withdra UK-specific products!

Don't know if anyone else is on the X-10 Europe reseller mailing
list....

Got a release this morning that basically says "the market isn't big
enough, we're withdrawing all the UK-specific".

It would appear that 80% of sales are still in the US, and 15% are for
the "pan-European" versions, with the UK versions a tiny 3%.

... so they've decided that the manufacturing costs of making the "UK
versions" like the LM12_U_ are too high to justify the sales.

Things like DIN rails, that don't have UK-specific fittings will still
be produced.

Eek.

I've put the whole message (which is long, and and in PDF format ) on
