doesnt that kinda work both ways? claims are made in name of believes (generally a believe is not a certainty), Honestly I dont care what is said, but claiming it doesnt in first place requires some proof to back it up, otherwise its just FUD. You cant tar everything with same brush and besides I doubt pulse eight has tested all machines.

I may be not enough into this thread, but isn't this about the implementation of HDMI CEC? If you want something developed for it, you need something to run in it on. If someone says that he believes that there isn't something like that and you still want it to be dev., then you need something which actually features it.

Allright, I can bring some light into this:
There is no ION-Board which features HDMI CEC. Googling for a long time, doesn't bring up any usable hints for such board. And you just know that someone how would manufactur this would also advertise it. There are chips for it, but it doesn't seem like it is implemented on any ION-Board. And that is not a believe
Although - there is a mentioning that some ATI Cards feature it, but AMD doesn't talk about it anywhere - so it doesn't seem like there is anything available at this point.
