I would add my thanks to John K. for 'representing' us at CES!

The only thing I would add is that it may be sufficient to just get audio into G68XXX, and continue to use HDMAX for video. We would need something like an HDMAX 422 - with 2 parallel HDMI outputs, one into the G68XXX and another to the display. This would negate the need for HDMI output on the G68XXX, and would probably only require a single HDMI input.

BTW, I assume the upgrade path for 861 is more likely (and clearer)?

Thanks!

Simon
