I'd rather get my OdA upgraded. Sorry.

That's another point altogether but I understand how you feel entirely. I too would be very interested to hear what the difference in SQ the upgrade will bring.
I have to say it baffles me how manufacturers nowadays can just go and take our money on the promise of a product that hasn't even been developed yet. I guess it's because of the internet; no longer do you have to visit a dealer or show to find out the latest. It's just a matter of seconds after a manufacturer puts out a press release that anyone anywhere can read about it. So now to be the first as a manufacturer you have to sell before you develop. What's next? Sell before you have an idea?
May be it's time for Od'A owners to take action if it is confirmed the streaming board will not be ready as announced initially? The only official reason to delay Od'A upgrade what the incoming streaming board. I really start to feel that the way this is managed by Devialet is more and more unacceptable.
