I haven't seen any announcements either. Player size still undergoes vigorous internal debate, though. But you do know it has been possible, for quite some time, to render core SVG instructions on the majority of desktops today, right? http://deng.com.br/features/ If you wish to improve the rendering instructions, then you can do so... it's an opensource SWF which contains the SVG code: http://deng.com.br/support/ (Trivia point: The Macromedia Flash Lite 1.1+ libraries for mobile have the option for an SVG-Tiny compliant rendering engine, but I do not know of any manufacturers who have deployed that option.) Summary: There's already a cross-platform, cross-browser engine deployed to the world's desktops today, which has the capability to render SVG content.
