hardware-wise we should expect what is already found in the pre-production units loaned during the summit (unless the release date has been pushed back into 2010).
Likely, but you never know if they had the same suspicions from early september or even before. They could have had modified units in-house well before the october release date and were just weighing the pros/cons of switching to unit rx51-502 instead of rx51-501 (or whatever) for production. They then could have said, "as long as rx52-502 can be in production by the holidays, it's worth it. Spend October doing extra QA on rx52-502, then we'll release to the public in mid-november".

I can dream.
