You may find the debate that sdurani and I have been having in this thread to be of interest. My credentials are those of a hobbyist who's done a lot of reading over the years, but Sanjay's much more knowledgeable on the nuts and bolts of the industry than I am - his estimates of the time involved in getting any sort of HDMI 1.3 product to market seem to match up pretty closely with what I've gleened, and I trust his estimates. Figure later this year for HDMI 1.3 sources and some time next year (probably middle of the year or later) for surround processors in the price range of the Outlaws (I don't know whether Outlaw will be out there at the front of the pack or not, so I don't want to speak for them on what their plans are).
