The latest and greatest

Sometimes I see a new product (in this case speakers) that get lots of press and discussion only to see lots of them for sale a little later. 
Right now there are many pairs of Kef LS50s coming up for sale (both the regular and W versions).
Are these just a flash in the pan or just showing up on the market because so many have been sold?
In my mind there is nothing like a product that has stood the test of time. 
Am I just being a sceptic?

Those of us who have saved years of copies of Stereophile can go back and look at speaker ads from companies and designs long since vanished. And yet Vandies, Maggies, Triangles, and several others are still around in more or less their original config.

Any product line is going to be susceptible to style without substance - or simply to the whims of the market.
