Now "early 2015" might mean April 31st, but just getting some details would be great.

Here's hoping for sooner than that. At this point, seeing nothing more than a 4:2:2 retread of the AX100's 4K codec would be more than a little maddening. I, too, am hoping they've managed 60p.
After such a wait, however, I'd also be a bit worried about "We're sorry, but this upgrade applies only to serial numbers greater than ########." Because, let's be honest: As a firmware-only thing, it's hard to imagine what could be taking them so long.
