What will HDMI 2.0 improve on my next prepro?

[boe]

I'm debating spending a big wad o' cash on another prepro. I realize there is ALWAYS something better coming just like any other electronics item but I haven't really heard much about HDMI 2.0. I heard a lot of talk about HDMI 1.3 before it came out. I figure 2.0 must be a ways off or we'd probably have heard more about it. I'm not rolling in the dough so if 2.0 is a major improvement I can live with waiting a couple of years if 2.0 is anything special.

Anyone know if 2.0 it is even scheduled for release? Anyone know what it will add or change?

Thanks.

As far as I know, there isn't anything requiring the use of 1.3 on the market yet nor is there likely to be so I wouldn't spend any time worrying about it.

I don't see any new HDMI standard coming along any time soon either since there are very few things out right now that can take advantage of the deep color offered by HDMI 1.3a, so I would just get something now and not sweat it. You can always wait yourself into never buying anything, so just get something nice now and enjoy it.
