I haven't heard any specific rumors about NAB, or for that matter, anything confirmed...but I'll observe that for the last two years in a row, Blackmagic Design was given the Creative COW Blue Ribbon Award for Best in Show at NAB, for both the dizzying volume of products released, and the game-changing nature of several of them.
In that sense, nothing that they do will surprise me. This is shaping up to be the hottest NAB in years, but BMD has set itself up as the company to beat.
Although I should also mention that Grant has explicitly denied any intention of buying Avid. :-)
