* Petunia, a very fast PPC JIT 68k emulator will be integrated into PPC AmigaOS. However MUI will not be the standardly endorsed GUI system for AmigaOS, that will be Reaction and BOOPSI. * IBrowse will utilize a new PPC native version of the highly customizable Magic User Interface. Flash player support will also become available for IBrowse. * The new PPC version of the internet browser IBrowse will have much better JavaScript support and stability. * An Overhauled printer system is planned for AmigaOS 4.1 * Clean PPC native implementation of ARexx. Hyperion licensed 12 professional TrueType fonts from Agfa for next generation AmigaOS releases. * Good Unicode support is being worked on (full implementation in Amiga4.1). * Overhauled version of the DataTypes System planned this year for AmigaOS 4.1 or 4.2, especially geared towards streaming media (encoding/decoding). * Support for Apple hardware is possible, but unlikely as this would require a non anti-competive behaviour by Apple. * Hyperion licensed DOpus Magellan from GPSoft for AmigaOS4. (Birdie, VisualPrefs and MagicMenu functionality is being implementated in a very clean way.) * Screenshots to be appearing around the 10th of April, showing intuition’s new look and capabilities. * At least one OS update (AmigaOS 4.1) before the end of this year. Some highlights: * The initial expected end-user release date is planned for May. In a live interactive streaming audio/ICQ interview, by UGN at the AmigaExpo in Baltimore, Hyperion released even more interesting details regarding the development of AmigaOS4.
