Hmmmmm...
I'll take one of those. The amount of entertainment that the cats will get out of that would be worth it. Besides, it will give them something else to play with so they stop opening and sleeping in the wardrobe!

Know what?
I don’t think I need to upgrade to the new box. I took one of my original Outlaw boxes and connected it to my system to see if it needed any improvement. I started conservatively. At first I checked for hiss or other bothersome signal problems with the boxed closed. I then slowly progressed until I had the box wide open – still no hiss! No distortion! Even if the new box has a few more cubic inches than my original box, I really don’t think the new box will do any better in my system. Guess I’m going to just have to suppress my “number envy,” seeing as the new box says “990” and my original box doesn’t, at least until a good deal of material becomes available needing a format my original box won’t hold. Perhaps then I can justify an upgrade.
If any of you do install the new box in your system, be sure to give the rest of us your impressions.

I know Scott's post was meant to be a joke, but I really hope there is something in the pipeline to fill that box soon - I just finished installing the last of our 7.2 Triad in-ceiling speakers and a pre/pro to control it all is what I really need.
Outlaws, you haven't given us an update in almost 2 months, how about giving us some dirt?! Will we be seeing you at the NYC HES next month?

Umm... All of a sudden I'm not so sure this is a joke any more. That looks like a new pre/pro with front panel mic, optical, and video inputs behind those little covers. Should we be getting excited?

Curiouser and Curiouser ... Didn't see anything like this previewed at last years HE show!
Still nothing to indicate the scale. Could still be under 2" x 3" x 3" and, as Wayne suggested, could be their "Chatchki" for this year ... the first year I met the Outlaws in NYC, they were giving out small AM/FM radios. Although this one is much nicer looking that that first give-away ...
