Oops, bad choice of words. Substitute "announce" or "release"
for "create" in my sentence above. Yes, of course, companies
are working on multiple releases of products at any one time.
But to release a product involves a lot of testing, some lying
in print (uh, marketing announcements & press releases), parts
pre-production, ordering system updates, training for techs and
support personnel, white papers, etc. A company only has a
limited number of workers in each department. Note that Nikon
does not release both their pro digital camera (D1/D1X) and
their semi-pro digital camera (D100) at the same time, even
though it causes confusion for the people that sell them [what
do you mean, the D1/D1X has LESS megapixels than the D100 ????].
