Actually, that rumor was discounted some months ago. They don't
produce any other Space products because the SW line is big enough and
there isn't a need in the market for it.
And second - I would think that an idea like that [chain letter] would
come from someone born *after* 1987. I know for one, I would delete
any such letter entering my box and probably severely flame the
sender. Such emails are a drain to net resources and a waste of
internet users time - aka SPAM.
