Sony has just issued a press release on 8/8/02 concerning the new Sony SAT-HD200 that replaces the '100' model. Sony says the new units will be available at the end of September. The price will be about $900.00. The only difference that I saw between the HD200 and the old HD100 is the inclusion of the DVI HDTV connector. From what their press release states the component video can pass HD signals but we really won't know until the product reaches the market.
