If I recall correctly, it was $2,400. I managed to pick one up in 2009 for $1,600 shipped with the 404s.

Ah, there was the steel for a while, is that gone?
It is still a crime to make the base bike look like a track bike, when it has a geometry which plainly doesn't work at all on a track (and often won't be allowed to be ridden on a track).
Looks like the dropped the steel Langster. The "weird" Langsters were just the City Editions: Seattle (Green w/ Fenders, NY (Yellow w/ Flat bars), Chicago "Gangster", Boston, Tokyo, SF... Maybe I'm forgetting a few. But they're all in the archive.
I wouldn't be surprised if the new frame is actually just an Allez frame (or other basic road frame) with horizontal dropouts... Haven't compared the geometry sheets to test the claim.
