Unfortunately all I've seen has been a pre FCC certification release 
"brag sheet".  "It looked" to be larger than the 7000, but smaller than 
the 756 Pro by a fair amount. 1.8 through the 440 band with all modes. 
No hint of price was given  "My Guess" is it is the replacement for the 
746 which would make it a bit more expensive than the 746 was.  I don't 
think it's an all band version of their super expensive rigs. 

I thought it was inside my latest QST, but I don't find it there. It may 
have been an insert, or maybe it was in one of the catalogs from HRO or 
AES.  HOWEVER a quick search turned up this 
http://www.universal-radio.com/catalog/hamhf/5091.html
It bears more than a resembelance to the old 746 Pro which was 
287(W)×120(H)×316.5(D) mm, weighs around 18# to 19#, and sold for around 
$1800.

The more I dig the more I'm betting on it being a replacement for the 
746, so I'd compare the size and price (plus inflation)  of that at 
least as a planning guide.
