I'd like to see HSA computing get so much adoption by being used in both next-gen consoles. I think it would open up a lot of possibilities in the future.

This is the first I've heard about a delay, seeing as how this product hasn't even been announced yet.

Premature much?

Note: This is a specific term with a very specific meaning, if you don't understand what it implies, SemiAccurate does do technical consulting

Seriously? "We're going to use this acronym and not define it, but if you want the words actually spelled out you can pay us for that." I would guess that PoR means Process of Record, but I'm not willing to pay to confirm that.

I would guess that SemiAccurate's audience for this article is the developers who are awaiting an SDK / test hardware. I would imagine that software development has been ongoing for some time if the article is true in saying the release date is Sept 2013, but they need actual hardware to test the games on. Insiders might be more in tune with this news than you or I.
