5 hours ago, gr5 said:@orionz06 - keep in mind that when new products are announced they don't necessarily ship within a few months. I think when the S5 came out it didn't ship until about 6 months later - but I could be wrong. I think the *announcement* can be months before the *release*. So I'm not sure you want to delay any purchases.
Maybe call your reseller and ask them for advice. They might know what's coming. They won't tell you but they can tell you if you should wait or not.
I am not entirely sure if that is true. We actually usually aim to have the products available right after launch. Obviously, with high demand there can be a lead time but they should be available already.

Don't worry. A lot of the people working at Ultimaker still have "the small guys / girls" at heart. Probably because most of them used to be on the other side before. So even if the recently announced

I don't think the UM3 dropped in price when the S5 came out. Maybe the UM2 did. Things tend to move slower than you are used to with Ultimaker - they want to get things perfect. And they don't want to come out with a new printer and have everyone want to return the old one (actually they often let you return a printer that you bought within a month of the announcement - don't know if they will do that this time though).
So think of this announcement as likely at least a month before they are for sale. Apple just announced the iphone11 but I don't think it will be available for quite a while. Okay I checked and Apple ships a few weeks from now. But VW just announced the ID.3 car and that I think will indeed be many months before it ships.
Anyway, you should really talk to your reseller. They will know things like this.
