The first units of the ML507 will be available in June and they will be
identical to the ML505 & ML506 boards except that they will use the new
XC5VFX70T-1CES devices, so get your PO and/or credit cards ready.

We will also be releasing ML52x boards with Virtex-5 FXT devices on
them, but this will not happen until late this year.  Your local System
I/O Specialist FAE has the new ML523-FXT boards in hand and should be
able to give you a demo earlier than the production release date.
