Medieval Castles - History?

No new Castle releases.  Oh, a few hard to find special sets, but no real
follow-up to Knight's Kingdom.  Of course, Lego plays its cards close to the
gravy stains and new releases may be around the corner, but with the Harry
Potter liscense, it seems doubtful that they would come out with two large
castles necessary for both.  And though it has a castle and magic, Harry
Potter is definitely not medieval.  No seige weapons, no knights, no cavalry.

So, the question: is Castle history?  And would you buy it anyway
considering the increasing "juniorization"?  I have yet to purchase the 6091
King Leo's Castle - mostly just acquiring the minifigs.  Maybe if I see it
down around $25-$30, but that would be it.  Will prices rise for old stuff
dramatically?
