Both statements are likely to be correct.

High-end stuff will all be 10-speed now.

Indeed they are, the last (as in most recent [i]and [/i]final) are M970s, and they are shown as discontinued on the Madison website. 10 speed herein.

I really struggled early last year to find some 9-spd XTR shifters, and in the end actually paid more than I'd have done for 10-spd ones.

And I've a new XT 9-spd mech sat next to me just now (thanks Postie), as little choice in XTR - as in too much difference now that few are discounting XTR vs XT.

Don't know how much you're willing to pay? But there's some in stock [url= http://www.bicyclehero.com/gb/shimano-xtr-derailleur-shifter-set-sl-m970-9sp.html ]here[/url].
