Beovision 12 NG

With all the talk about the new Beosystem 4 I have not seen anything about the BV 12 panel.

Is it a newer version? Or is it exactly the same as before?  

Is the speaker available in the new grey color only or is the polished aluminum still an option?

There have been discussions on the new BV12 in another thread - I contributed to the discussion.

No-one really knows. It's just an updated plasma. The speaker is now grey, yes.

Hi, the panel is still the same - just some different connections and the optional floor standing version. Both colours are now available :)

Will the new panel still work with the Beosystem 3?  Just different cables?
