Embraer decides to spill some beans:
Embraer SA said another wave of 70-seater regional jet orders in the U.S. is on the horizon that will help bridge production to a new plane family due from 2018.
New U.S. orders could emerge in the next two to three years for the Brazilian plane maker’s E175 model, said Paulo César de Souza e Silva, who heads the commercial airplane unit.
“There is a huge need there to replace 50-seaters,” he said during a conference call from Brazil. He added that replacing aging 70-seat jets in the U.S. offers further sales opportunities.
“There might be 300 aircraft needed in the U.S. between 2015 and 2018/2019,” Mr. César said.

Then you have not been on the 200 from the beginning because when we first got it the speed was 230 kts.
Flaps 30 was 195 kts IIRC
Flaps 45 was 183 kts IIRC

I interviewed last week and was told I could expect a call! It's not official yet but I'm pretty excited about the potential of joining you OOers. Anyone in the E175 out in ORD (or anyone with some knowledge of how the operation is working out and the schedule) willing to PM me? I have a couple questions. Thanks!

Not sure he spilled anything... the dude is a salesman, it's his job to spin. The never said there will be new orders or there are new orders, he said there could be. Hell, SkyWest already ordered them... they just need to find someone to fly them for. That's not working out too well as of late.
