Yes, but they changed the specifications! Now DTS HD HR is mentioned - not only the core!

* Hi-resolution Audio: YES; HDMI™ bitstream out:YES

In the old PDF it was only DTS-Audio!

Release date at amazon is 11/1st? Is the S500 now profile 1.1?

Strangely; the DTS-HD specifications of the S2000ES:

I'm disappointed because Sony's own new ES receivers, new Pioneer Elites, new Yamahas, etc. are capable of DTS-HD MA but Sony doesn't have a player option on the horizon that is capable of actually transmitting the native bitstream. HRA is great but I'm ordering movies now that have MA.

It's a grace period unit, not FSP. See:
