After listening to Dave Haynie speak while mingling with the crowd at Amiga Ireland I can categorically tell you this will not never ever happen for the basic reason that the chipset while produced as a first revision doesn't work, isn't even close to working. Its full of bugs of which Dave only explained one while I was listening. Apparently the best he got out of it was to display a screen at a nice resolution, something like 1200x800 if I remember correctly.
His explaining of the 1 fault went way over my head but essentially what I remember was one of the custom chips had a fault where by it corrupted the data bus so another other access requested to it was impossible. Essentially computer said no, or something to that effect anyway. The man is fantastic to listen to but his knowledge flies so far over your head that its difficult to keep track, either that or the quantity of drink consumed had err... dampened my intellect.
