Hopefully we see something by this time next year. Yawn.
I'm sure this is close...I just have a sneaky feeling...but I'm probably wrong 
Actually really looking forward to this now I've started my own cab build. Filled it with Pfx games today but a bit wary of filling it with TPA games because I have a feeling cab support games may be additional tables at additional cost so I wouldn't want to have to pay for them twice. I could be totally wrong of course, but I'm guessing that as they would be set up different, they'd have to be designed different, and therefore would be charged differently too. If that's what happens I wouldn't be totally surprised.

I guess it comes down to wether you'd have to create two tables for each method of play ie one table for general play and one for cab play. If it's just a tweak like PfX did with their Dmd display, then I could see that being an 'upgrade' for free. But my guess is that they'll have to be 2 separate entities and therefore I have a feeling they'll be different tables, and therefore will be at an extra cost. But on the flip side, if they implement full cab support with all the things that I've recently seen the VP tables do, then I'm sure it'll be worth paying for.

Should I give up waiting? I feel unsure and a little bit taken for a ride

Join the club. Been feeling that way for a few years now. Don't get your hopes up. That's the best advice I can give.

All Hail our Otter Overlords!
Hey Farsight...now I know ur not always able to give time frames etc...but (and this is actually a serious question) do you reckon cab support is gonna be with us in 2015 or 2016? I'm making some alterations to my cab soon, and gotta decide in which direction I'm heading. Would make a good Christmas present to myself.....2015 that is, not 2016

What about a kickstarter to add cabinet support?!? I am sure Farsight would raise plenty to pay for the overtime to get this finally done.
