The reason that CM6000 is so inexpensive (these days) is that it has been
relegated to being a "budget title", now that CM7000 has been out for almost a
year and CM8000 is due in a couple of months. I believe that it can still be
found in some superstores in the US for about $10-15 (about the same range as
six pounds, right?).
