Saturday saw another Man Vs. Machine game: http://shogi.typepad.jp/eweblog/computer_shogi/
"The computer software Bankras beat retired and former Meijin Yonenaga Kunio in 113 moves." It seems it is just a one-game match, and the next one won't be until 2013 (where it will be five professionals vs. five machines). I couldn't find it mentioned explicitly but, reading between the lines, Yonenaga sounds weaker than a young 4-dan pro.
