Rumor has it that Sony has a new A/D converter chip based on sigma delta
technology.  Two questions: 1) Does anybody out there in net land know
about said chip? 2) Is Sony planning to introduce a new product using
this chip in the near future? 
 
Sony's current A/D technology is sort of old and requires an 80 MHz clock
and multiple components for implementation but is nonetheless used in
their 2500 model DAT machine. 
 
Thanks in advance..
