Yes, that's right. It should be out after Christmas. My local Zenith center
already has the glossies on this new beast - the ZCM-1492. The specs I have
on it are as follows: Dimensions: 12.25"H x 14.75"W x 14.95"D Weight: 37 lbs.

As far as image size, and capabilities go it looks like they haven't changed
anything. That may be good or bad, depending on how you see it. Rumor has
it that the ZCM-1492 also has no fan, so it should be quieter. I like
my 1490, but if I were buying new I'd wait. -MWP
