I'll see what else I can find in this one. It appears this catalog was released during the 99 changeover and had items that were not yet available at retail yet.

Found a few more....

Square Wire 2.0 was originally called the New Square Wire as was the E Wire 2.0 & A Wire 2.0 were also "New" before settling on 2.0.

That makes a lot of sense. All the O Matter revisions added 'New'.
