All,

If you go to the BP6.com site there is some postings about the VP6. 
Some people have even got engineering eval boards and some sites are
pre-selling them (~$189).  It will have RAID 100 and looks pretty good. 
I also think Ars-Technica or [H]OCP had some things also.  2CPU also had
a few things.
