How odd.  As I pointed out to some folks at DEC, the current product
line still does include the 500a/au, and lists 'PowerGrade to 600a'
as an option.  The DPWS is deprecated in favor of the also 
very nice XP1000.. guess all things must change with time. 

[warning! heresy below]
One could easily clock their 433a or 500a to 600Mhz, risking the
molten slab effect.  The dip settings on the MLB for clocking are 
well-documented.
