There is no silicon available for 1.3 within the timeframe Lumagen has announced the release of Radience - maybe there will be future "members" of the Radiance series that will contain it, but that would take minimum a year from now....

It is even likely that Lumagen will go a sepparate direction, and choose UDI - a new chipset from Silicon Image that is backwards compatible with HDMI via a passive adapter (like DVI -> HDMI).

Advantages with UDI is no license fee + better conectors (with lock) and support for high bit data depth.

I discussed this with Jim at Lumagen during the Hometheater Cruise last year, and I believe that he is taking a closer look at this, guess we will see where it ends in a couple of months ;-)

cheers
