Nice of you to do more hand wringing for Outlaw, but I think being in the business for a decade or more and being a pioneer in the ID model means they might know a little bit about who's a potential customer. And all this complaining that they are not updating on the 978 is not realistic. Does Parasound give updates? How about Denon, Pioneer, Yamaha, Onkyo, Hsu, SVS, Axiom, etc. I could name dozens, but the point is they do about the same as Outlaw on this front, and when they are almost ready to release it you'll hear about it.
