Apparently they have the capability for something similar to the 6800, but it isn't exposed in D3D yet (like centroid sampling). Should be interesting.
Have you noticed ATi seems to have a bizarre fixation with hiding hardware features and only exposing them when they think they need them?

As for their geometry instancing, what API will expose it? SM 2.x doesn't have the instructions for it, does it?

a R3xx or above graphics card (9500,9600,9700,9800) DirectX 9.0b, FarCry 1.2 and Catalyst 8.041. With this setup Geometry Instancing support is possible.

It looks like the driver exposes the functionality that already exists in DX9.0b and will support r3xx as well. It is interesting we are just now hearing about...wonder what welse is out there.
