Not so.
I ordered a TrimSlice just a couple of days ago and got notice today 
that it is being shipped.  It was a struggle to find it on their web 
site, I admit.  Yes, the links seemed to go to their Utilite product but 
if you persevere, you'll find one that goes where you want it.
As I mentioned: US$100!  (I think it was 99 actually but can't remember 
for sure.  Shipping was extra and not insubstantial!)
The low price may reflect the fact that they have stopped production and 
want to clear inventory so availability may come to an end but that is 
pure conjecture.

Thay accept PayPal which is my prefered method of payment.
