We have heard this system and it is indeed very impressive. However, time to market for us is critical and due to software issues we are a bit behind schedule. Adding this in at this time will tend to slow down the process and there is also the MIPS issue to contend with Going forward, this is something to think about for future implementations. Peter
Oooh yeah! Maybe another feature to help differentiate the 998? Meridian owners seem to like it. I wonder how difficult it would be to integrate this with Trinnov? That would be a unique feature combination! Thanks for clarifying who owns the rights.

Outlaw has said the 978 will be "state of the art." I hope the only difference between the 978 & 998 will be Trinnov vs. Audyssey XT32. I don't want to buy the 978 only 6 months later wish I had waited for the 998 because it has a different feature set than the 978. I just don't want them to intentionally "hold back" features for the 998.

Thanks Peter. "...the release date is now targeted for late in the first half of this year." I would be very disappointed, BUT for the past 8 months I've lived with the delay of one of our products being caused by - you guessed it - firmware. Evil firmware - more difficult than hardware. One bug fix hatches two more bugs. Our supplier's slow firmware development caused us to miss the holiday season with this one new product :-( So, I'll hang tight. I assume you'll announce advance order placement at some time?

Peter, Now that Silicon Image has acquired "select assets" from Anchor Bay Technologies, will that affect the use of the ABT chip in the 978? Do you have an alternative? CT

I know what you are saying, but nothing is final until it's final.
