I think I know what you're saying ...

"Montage Discontinued" to you sounds like they're cancelling the whole line. And yet there are announcements of a new Montage and this seems like a cognitive discontinuity.

"Montage Discontinued" means that the first generation of Montage (probably later referred to as "Montage Classic" ) is discontinued. Not that the entire line is discontinued. The next keyboard will be called Montage M generically. Maybe the next go around they can make things less confusing by introducing a new product line with a secondary name (like M in Montage M, EX or XS or XF in Motif, etc). If the first Montage was called "Montage DX" then announcing cancelling "Montage DX" wouldn't cause any confusion that perhaps the entire line was being cancelled. In this case, it just happens that both the series and first iteration of that series share the same name. And, yes, that can get confusing.
