Holy cow...  do some guys really expect them to lower the price even 
more by stripping them down ? ! ? !

To me, the price is so low now, the tuner is kinda tossed in for free, 
and I would not feel burdened by having to buy a dang tuner I don't 
need...  But I suppose there are those who want even deeper discounts, 
and would prefer they offer totally bare bones kits, with a smorgasbord 
of options, so one everyone could avoid buying any feature or option 
they don't need.   So, while they remove the tuner, maybe they can also 
remove the USB port and the ACCessory jack for operators who do not use 
them.  There would be so much less waste if they just custom built each 
one to order.

Besides, if you don't want the whole package, I am sure they would keep 
the mic and stand and other goodies, and ship just the rig, if you asked 
them too...     ;-)
