I have not seen these cards yet, so I don't know for sure. However, I was
told by ATI that, at least in TV-in/out respects Radeon All-in-Wonder 8500
is similar to existing All-in-Wonders. I would reasonably expect 2d and
overlay to function and, perhaps, even dri although they did have some
chagnes to the graphics pipeline so we can't know for certain until
someone tries ;)
