If you've heard that, you've heard something wrong. The contract was
*announced* a few weeks ago, how could the drivers be released a feww
weeks ago ?

Here's the deal: We have three weeks to finish the driver *after the
contract is going "active"*. This was *not* the time that Elbox chose
announce it. In fact, it need the small detail of Hyperion signing the
contract as well. Don't worry, we did so directly after receiving the
signed contracts from Elbox.
I'm not going to discuss further details of the contract, as I think
this is nothing that is supposed to be discussed in public. However,
there has been some delays due to incompatibilities in Elbox's Picasso96
drivers, the time they need to correct this, our three week deadline is
suspended.

We will announce the availablility in due time. You might be impatient,
but believe me, I've grown extremely weary of this whole affair.
