A video processor would provide an interesting alternative to the 997 for current 990 owners. As a beta tester Peter T. provided glowing comments regarding the DVDO/ABT video processor (same as the Edge) in the OPPO BDP-83. With a Blu Ray player decoding and outputting the new audio formats via analog 7.1 and an Outlaw video processor (Edge: yes, yes!) I can keep my 990.
This is a much juicier announcement than my earlier suggestion of 2-channel audio.
