Bingo!

I talked to a certain Outlaw at the October 2007 Rocky Mt Audio Fest and inquired if they were working on a HDMI prepro. He confirmed this, and estimated a possible summer 2008 release date. This was only a confirmation that Outlaw was working on a new gen prepro at the time, and certainly nothing official. At some point, Outlaw apparently realized that the ongoing delays with the chip manufacturer at that time were unacceptable, and changed platforms. Little did they know that they went from the frying pan into the fire with the SN implimentation of Trinnov, in terms of the projected release date. It's really a shame that SN let a handful of 972s out without a final debugging.
