Single card with six displays isn't yet possible, right? There is no way (yet) to daisy chain via Displayport?

How did AMD do the six display setups they've shown pictures of - with two cards, 3 displays each?
 
As far as I know the drivers won't support it yet... but maybe i misunderstood. Maybe it was just that Eyefinity didn't support crossfire just yet.

I also think you are correct. 3 displays per card.
 
It's a model that's not out yet. 5870-Six or something like that. It's 6 DPs on the back of a single card.
 
Ya, ATI has a HD5870 with 6 displayport connections that's not released yet.

Picture from techpowerup.com setup.

I read somewhere that AMD/ATI is working on getting Eyefinity to work with crossfire enabled and its only a software/driver limitation for the time being.
