30b discontinued?

[Michael de Estrada]

IDK if you consider these to be "hard facts", but I present the following observations as evidence that the HP 30b is no longer being manufactured:

1) I recently purchased five new HP 30b calculators, and the serial numbers on all of them suggest that they were manufactured in 2010, which is over 3 years ago. The latest date code is 046, 46th week of 2010.

2) The latest review I could find on the HP website is dated November 19, 2010.

3) All sales in the North American market are third party, such as eBay, Amazon etc.

4) There is no HP customer support for this product.

5) It is not being sold in brick and mortar stores in the USA.
