Oh.  Now that's interesting news.

OTOH, from what I've read here so far, "hybrid" seems to be lacking 
features and development efforts on the 6500 platforms (as compared to
"native"), so maybe that's still not the perfect way to go.

I think this brings the question down to "what features do you need, 
specifically, and are these available on the Sup32 NOW?"...
