Default Ohlins next generation products...?

I am thinking of doing the popular upgrade to the 30mm cartridge kit, TTX 36, and steering damper but I am wondering whether it would be better to wait for new things to come out?
Ohlins mentions the new TTX36 MKII with electronic readjustment and the FGRT200, the R&T forks with now the 30mm kit.
Can we expect anything else or only time will tell?

expect a price bump also, the 30mm internals will be in the full fork these are what I was told by Ohlins when I was researching wether to buy a full fork or just a 30mm kit a while back.

Forgo the Ohlins steering damper and getcha a Scotts.

EDIT... looking like Scotts doesn't have one for the S1 PitBull might be an option then... they have high/low speed valving as well. There was a post on here earlier about them trying to gain enough interest. Don't know what ever happened w/it.

The new Ohlins TTX MKII just came out, it's listed in some retail stores.
I'll have to do some research on whether it is a significant improvement, but there is only a price bump of about $7? from the TTX36 as it is listed for about $1245.
We will have to see if the 30mm cartridge kit will get an upgrade...

Maybe I should just wait a while before even touching the suspension on my bike. I run lower level advanced on the track now, but Ohlins is so $$$$
