Those units sent to Yamaha for new boards will not be fully functional upon return, either. They will still require a firmware update after the hardware update.
There will never be a TV, console and AVR combo that does it ALL. Never has been, never will be. Sony and Microsoft could have made some peoples' lives easier by including two HDMI outputs. Shame on Sony because they already do it on some blu-ray players. I've passed on new consoles for years because they never put one out that was a good gaming unit and fully functional disc player. There was always a catch. I don't think the next gen consoles will offer disc drives at all but some won't care if they finally get up to 48gbps and have full HDMI 2.1 features and shrink in size. The current form factors are just ridiculous.
