I have been waiting for some info since it is December. No word at this point probably means no go by Xmas. Another year goes by and the Outlaws are holed up in their hideout. Some smoke signals would be welcome at this point. I thought the Outlaws were working on a way to be able to ship to our frustrated friends in the great white north country.
From Peter T's announcement back in October:
With that in mind, it is clear to us that, at this time, flawless implementation of the new HDMI Version 1.4a features is more critical than Trinnov. Therefore, we have decided to modify our product plan by dropping Trinnov for now, with the revised processor named the Model 978. This will cause a slight delay in the introduction date from late this year to the first quarter of 2011, but it assures us a bug-free launch. Once we get past the launch of the Model 978 we will be free to return to work on the Trinnov-enabled Model 998.
