Fullstream on ATI9000...was ATI cheating ?

[Kvochur]

Hi,
eight months ago I bought an ATI Radeon 9000. I needed a VGA card for
2D and DVDs, DivX videos, MPEGs... (I have a 2th PC under my TV...)...for
this
use I have chosen the 9000 instead of 7000 only because the publicized
FULLSTREAM feature.
When I bought the video card, the fullstream was not supported yet, but I
was confident for future support.

Now, ATI's drivers claims to support Fullstream in DivX player...but only
for 9500/9600/9700/9800 series (DX9 video cards) !
So has ATI forgot 9000's users ? Do they have publicized an inesistent
feature
? If I had know this, I would saved my money...

Or will it be supported later ? BUT is it acceptable wait more than EIGHT
MONTHS to have all functions enabled ?

I wrote to ATI, but I have not obtained any response... :-((((((
Any suggestion ?

Thanks to all, and sorry for my bad english.
