True, as 2.5 weeks ago (which was, interestingly, 8 days prior to the related public announcement) A-Eon's AmigaOne X1000 specs page has been revised from reading

ATI Radeon R700 graphics card
2GB RAM
500GB Hard drive

...to reading

ATI Radeon Evergreen or Northern Isles graphics card (option)
2GB or 4GB RAM (option)
1TB Hard drive
[...]
Revised specifications valid from July 2012 and are subject to change.

As it seems, the first machine(s) of the 2nd batch already delivered in June still came with R700 graphics card.
Btw, the page still reads "It is 26 years since the launch by US computer company Commodore of the Amiga A1000" ;-) * ** *** ****

* changed to "27 years" on July 7th 2012
** should read "28 years" now in 2013
*** should read "29 years" now in 2014
**** changed to "over 30 years" on September 20th 2015
