Basically, yeah. The HDMI v1.3 sending chips were pushed hard to be ready in time for the PS3 to include v1.3, but the receiving chips ended up on the sidelines as a result. I've got to assume that at least production samples are available now, but you still have to wrap a platform around that and get all the new decoding modes working - something that will take some time. After all, we haven't even seen DTS-HD Master Audio decoding in any players yet.
