Panasonic HDC-SD9 spec change?

Panasonic.co.uk had the new SD9 (incorrectly linked from an SD5 image) on the "New Products" page but now the site has reverted to the old SD5 model. I spoke to Panasonic and they said they'd pulled the page as the spec is likely to be altered prior to release in the UK and the page was being amended.

They expect release of the camera and price after a trade show next month in Spain.

They confirmed the SD9 had the 5.1 mic system, was physically smaller than the SD5 and that the memory card access would be without the need to remove the battery first. No other information at present. They cautioned against relying on other web reviews as the spec of the SD9 was being changed. Not sure if this is true, but perhaps others have more info?

The panasonic UK website is b awful at the moment - broken links all over the place, whoever maintains it should be dropped like a stone.
