There's already some feeding frenzy over the 'discontinuation' of the line, after all these years. I've noticed resellers trying to move old stock at a premium.
It's really a brand name ownership change, a year in progress. 2 days ago a search at mouser showed only 'end of life', with the typical high price we've gotten used to seeing over the last 5 years or so. Now they are back, but only at huge quantities. Probably get in the pipeline soon.
