Mk2? I haven't seen any mention of Mk2. Any idea when it will be

It certainly does. I think I've got a pretty clear picture now. Now
the only thing missing is a 5 channel mk2 version using two cat5
cables for RGB+SPDIF or 1 cable for s-video+stereo (assuming this
could be made at a lower price than 2 separate 4 channel units) :-)
