The Advanced Bionics web site now has pictures and information about the new processor.  The DuoPhone feature from Phonak, illustrated above, allow bilateral and bimodal users to hold the phone up to one side, and have the sound streamed wirelessly to the other.

Another picture from the site shows a disposable battery option.  The flyer lists four options.
