John:

Usual slate of questions including:

1. 800..what are the upgrade plans...what are the plans for HDMI...what are the plans for Bluray and/or HD-DVD...what is the future of MHR re: high res...will it be possible to output 480i so that my video processor can do the deinterlacing (which I would greatly prefer)...what are plans for those of us who have invested inthis piece?

2. 861..what are the upgrade plans...what are the plans for HDMI...what is the future of MHR re: high res...what is the thinking re: decoding new high res codes...what is the thinking re: integration with 3rd party vp that add an audio delay (i.e. presumably just set audio delay in the Meridian to 0), etc.

3. G46...will this ever become a reality and if so when?

4. MF-2...will the current offering be replaced by a JVC RS-1 based unit, what enhancements over the JVC unit will M be offering (i.e. Phelps calibrations, lens, etc.), timing, etc.

5. MRC will this be further improved over the current interation (i.e. the need to manually iverride the deacy time is less than optimal).

6. OSD/User Interface...will this be improved via an OSD capability, a web based capability, etc. I find the current solution to be "less than current" -- at the very least clean it up (i.e. 861 has no bightness variable with MConfig and thus, the need to reset this exists after every upload).

That is it for now...will add/edit as I think of more.

Greatly aprreciate your efforts on our behalf.
