I think before that. I suspect September as they have the design in place and are just waiting for the screens. I have seen the units at CES but I am sure the firmware will be tweaked a bit before release to make it current as of its release. If Jinke gets final screens in August they should be able to turn them around in a month.
The 9.7" screen devices are not far ahead. Only a few have been delivered so obsolete is a bit strong. I suspect 9" screens and 9.7" screens will be around for years. The only thing that will make them obsolete is the fact that the 9" screens are a bit low in resolution at 1024 x 768 in my opinion. OK but not great.
