New Instrument Expansion Pack - will it work with PPC?

I looked everywhere for specs -- nothing.

WILL IT work with PT8HD 8.0cs3 on a PPC 2.7DP OS 10.5.8 ?

Anyone have specs or link to specs?

Thanks.

whoops... found these links:

http://www.digidesign.com/index.cfm?...11&itemid=4952
http://www.digidesign.com/index.cfm?...76&itemid=5142

Really? Intel only?

Looks like all AIR instruments are now Intel only.

Well, I guess I won't be buying this.

:-(

current docs for Strike state:
Quote:
System Requirements
To use Digidesign RTAS plug-ins you need one of the following:
◆ A Digidesign-qualified Pro Tools|HD system, Pro Tools LE system, or Pro Tools M-Powered system
◆ A Digidesign-qualified Pro Tools system and am third-party software application that supports the Digidesign RTAS plug-in standard
Is this just CYA time for Avid, since the current version of PT (8.0.3) is intel only?

Bounce. Read the new docs pdf -- no mention of intel only. Hmm....

Anyone from Avid care to comment, please?

The Pro Tools Instrument Expansion Pack Datasheet PDF located in the Download section of the VI pages states INTEL ONLY.

-PPC code = the new pricing I suppose.

Takes the fizz out of my anticipated / upgrade.

PPC 2.7

So does Logic 9 - but that doesn't mean much, since it works fine with PPC.

From the new docs:

System Requirements and
Compatibility
To use A.I.R. Virtual Instrument plug-ins, you need the following:
• An iLok USB Smart Key (not included)
• An iLok.com account for managing iLok licenses
• One of the following:
• A qualified Pro Tools|HD, Pro Tools LE, or Pro Tools M-Powered system (version 7.4 and higher)
• A qualified Pro Tools system and a third-party software application that supports the Digidesign RTAS plug-in standard
• DVD drive for Installation disc (boxed version of plug-in only)
• Internet access for software activation and registration purposes
So Avid sales -- what is it? Do you want my $499 ?

PS -- The Strike product page does not state "intel only" anymore:

http://www.digidesign.com/index.cfm?...11&itemid=4952
click on compatibility
or in details:
Quote:
System Requirements
Digidesign-qualified Pro Tools|HD®, Pro Tools LE®, or Pro Tools M-Powered™ system running Pro Tools 7.0 or higher software
768 MB of RAM (1 GB or better recommended)
DVD-ROM drive for installation
iLok USB Smart Key (a free iLok.comaccount and Internet access is required for retrieving and managing iLok licenses)
Avid sales, please confirm? What about Structure? Structure states intel only -- but none of the other plugs have this text in the compatibility or details pages of the product(s). Avid, please clarify.
