I guess that was just an answer to all the many people who counter A-Eon's plans by claiming that there's no suitable Power Architecture CPU after (and probably improving over) the PA6T, rendering an ISA change to x86 or ARM inevitable anyway, so that it makes no sense to go for the PA6T in the first place. I doubt there's been any real planning going on beyond X1000 yet.
