I haven't heard any mention of the AP1000 in all the CEDIA coverage. Perhaps it will be ready for CES . Personally, I'm hoping that McIntosh will re-visit the decision to exclude from the feature set HDMI audio inputs and the ability to decode the latest generation Dolby and DTS surround formats. That decision may have made sense at the time the AP1000 was originally announced. But it's much harder to justify now that the format war as ended and Blu-Ray has emerged as the victor.
