From the B&O website. Beocare responded about the 100hz rumor. I hope repost is OK, but guess it is since it's not beneficial to have update rumors floating.

 

Cheers

Bang & Olufsen televisions are built to be long-lasting, and stay with our customers for many years. We constantly monitor, evaluate and develop technologies, and update our concepts to ensure that we at all times offer a relevant, long-lasting concept to our customers. For example our MX-television was on the market for more than 20 years, and had many updates implemented in its lifetime. 

We generally do not integrate early generations of technologies, and we only implement a technology when it has reached a mature level, and when implementing it will result in a quality benefit for the customer. 

With regard to the two technologies mentioned in this thread, BluRay and 100 Hz, we are evaluating both technologies. With regard to playback of high definition DVD we are currently evaluating both main formats on the market (HD-DVD and BluRay), and consider how we can support either of these formats, as well as the standard definition DVD format, in the future. 
Implementing the 100 Hz technology at this stage would incrementally improve some elements of the picture on a BeoVision 7, however, the standard 100 Hz technology results in some drawbacks in relation to other elements in the picture. Therefore, Bang & Olufsen is working on a further refinement of the 100 Hz technology in order to contribute to an overall improvement of picture quality in our televisions, be it on fast or slow moving pictures. Based on this, we cannot at this point in time confirm implementation of either BluRay or 100 Hz technology within this year. 

Even without these two mentioned technologies, we are very confident that BeoVision 7 throughout its lifetime is a state-of-the art television with an excellent picture quality that is among the best on the market. 

Best regards 
BeoCare

B&o is still working on the 100Hz teknologi. It is not all god about the 100Hz, and there fore is B&o waiting.

The Blue Ray vil propperly come for the new tv's in 2009, but the chances that it also will be possible to change the dvd-player to the Blue Ray in the Beovision 7 is very high.

Apparently the BV7-40 will not come with an integrated BR player. The physical space required for the BR player isn't there. The DVD player fitted to the BV7 is extremely small, and it is not possible to fit the BR player to the excisting BV7.

However they are sure that BR is the future, and they wil be offering high quality BR players (probably integrated as well).
