I hope this is not old news already. Found it today, while browsing the web.
It seems that Jobo is coming back on the market with a new film processor in 2012.
The unit will cost 2270 GBP = 3661 USD.
The pricetag is catastrophic for some, but I still think this is good news.

it is. several weeks old. Makes the $500 I spent on my cpp2 seem like chicken change.
Yes, it`s good news, but I also think the price is a bit steep... hope it `ll be adjusted to the low.
Add a couple drums for sheet film and will rise to $4500... ouch!
The really good news is that, apparently at least, JOBO will continue to produce drums, reels, etc.
At least I hope so.

If you're a billioniare that can afford it. I'll apply chewing gum and shoestring to my CPP-2 until it goes.
Yeah, it only pays for itself in developing costs ($2.50 per sheet) if you shoot four sheets a day for a year. Man, can you imaging going through the trauma of two film holders per day? Or a roll and a half of film per day ($6.50 per roll)? Oh, the suffering!
