The latest issue of BYTE has a short note on the H1 on pages 26 & 30.
To quote:
  Performance: 100 MIPS, 20 MFLOPS
  Serial links: 100 Mbits/second
  Will support virtual links via an on-chip packet network controller,
  which will be able to through-route messages to other processors without
  tying up the CPU.
  Will have hardware memory-management/protection to allow standard
  operating systems like UNIX to run efficiently.

  The DRAM controller will support static column mode access.

  Will have a large cache.

  Will not be available until 1991.

Keep your fingers crossed.
