New Pioneer Elite DVD soon w/Prog. Scan?

Is Pioneer coming out with any Elite models with progressive scan soon? I have a new Pioneer DV-05 which frequently skips a half second when changing tracks while playing CDs'. This is the second model that has had this problem. Since I can still return it, I can exchange it for Pioneers' new progressive scan model (non Elite) if it is as good as the DV-05 in audio quality as well as non- progressive scan component out when watching anamorphic DVDs'. If it is, I will trade over for it, and use the progressive scan feature in the future. If not, I will wait for an Elite model if it is coming out soon. I have owned a Panasonic A-310, Sony DVP-7700, Denon DVD-3000 and Yamaha DVD-7000 players. Unfortunately, I still prefer Pioneers' picture quality even though the Sony is far superior ergonomically. Any help will be most appreciated. Pioneers' customer service was not very helpful. Martin Butler butlermusic@rcn.com
