Audio Research Source - CD3 mkII, CD5

I noticed on the arcdb.ws website the CD3 mkII as "discontinued" in 2008, but nothing about this is shown on the ARC website. The arcdb.ws website also shows a new CD5 as starting production in 2008, but again nothing on the ARC website - though the ARC website is hardly an up-to-date source for information.

If the CD3 mkII is to be dropped, that would indeed leave a hole in the "notch-below-reference-class" offering for a digital source.

Has anyone heard any rumors regarding ARC source components?
