Where in the press release does it suggest they are returning to the scanner business? The products they showed at CES were all pretty generic Amazon/AliExpress/PatentTroll commodity stuff branded with the RS logo. And if $39 for an HDMI cable on the website is where they are heading, they won't be "back" for long.
Excitement for the return of a retail RS for anyone born before about 1980 - that RS - is never ever coming back.
