Have you seen the expansion wing that we were showing off at LDI?

It is 20 masters with faders and 20 masters without. All 40 masters have flash keys in addition to play, pause, and choose. There is a set of main playback controls in the center that mimics those on the console. There is also an enable key that will allow you to disable the main playback controls and the playback choose keys so that you don't interfere with someone running cuelists on the console.

The expansion wing was first previewed at PLASA in 2004 and you can see a picture of the prototype that was shown in this news article on the High End Systems web site:

The expansion wing is still in development, but we are working hard to get it released for sale.

I would say the chances of a dedicated GM fader are slim. The console is still in development, but my understanding is that the major hardware design is complete. I don't think the engineers would be previewing the product at trade shows if they were still considering design changes that major.
