This I find difficult to accept. It was my belief that the Prime Material
is infinite is size (as are all of the other planes). As such I would
disagree - even if that contradicts TSR - that there could only be 2000
crystal spheres. I would say that there is an infinite amount.

As for the three major spheres - Realmspace, Greyspace, and Krynnspace - I
would also heartedly disagree that they are major. I would say that the
only reason that they are the most detailed is because they are the
settings for three major AD&D worlds. They are, in my opinion, backwaters
that just get a lot of traffic. I would say that the major empires would
be the major spheres. The three spheres would be only considered major
because they happen to be wedged between large empires. If this is the
case then why haven't the large empires moved in and taken them over -
possible because it is very neutral territory and if one empire makes
a move then the others will.
