There is pretty much no reason to assume this, so you're just pulling it
out of a hat. Not a bad place to pull out guesses, but as far as "as far
as we know" _really_ goes, GTA-01s will be sold, because that was the
plan, we've heard nothing to contradict the plan, and they "to the best
of our knowledge" already have a bunch of them waiting to be ready to be
sold. Upgrading the hardware for mass market was also planned for a long
while, so that they have GTA-02 plans and (apparently) even engineering
samples is nothing to be surprised about at this point.

In short, assuming that plans wrt. selling GTA-01 have changed somehow
due to the delays is totally unwarranted. You're not qualified to jump
to assumptions here.
