[gear] price increase for FR-2LE

["oryoki2000" oryoki2000]

Unfortunately, I think the price of the Fostex FR-2LE has gone up to $599.

When the FR-2LE was first released, most Internet vendors offered a
price of $599.  B&H Photo Video, a reputable dealer in New York City,
posted a price of $499.  In a few days, several vendors lowered their
prices to match.

When I checked today, however, all vendors, including B&H Photo Video,
have the FR-2LE back at $599.  Perhaps Fostex made a few persuasive
phone calls.  Or perhaps the vendors read Raimund Specht's review, and
realized what a good recorder they had.

For whatever reason, the price of the FR-2LE today seems to be $599.
People who made their purchase last week saved $100.
