NEW G5's and UAD-1?

Hey Gang,

since the new G5's are coming out, I was wondering if anyone knew if they made any changes to the PCI-X tunnel and basically if they solved the problem that effected the PCI cards like the UAD-1. I know its still early, but I figured i'd take a stab at it and see anyone has any early news on the subject.

I have a Dual 1.8Ghz with the PCI-X slots and am thinking of upgrading when they come out with a model that doesn't have the problem. I could always try to cross grade, but I actually like having the PCI-X slots for high end HD storage.

It seems that the new dp2.0 has standard pci slots.

It seems this is merely a processor and DVD drive update.

Hey Trace before you consider upgrading check out this thread

All new G5's are being shipped with Tiger, and according to this thread the UAD-1 will not work with Tiger at this time.
