Another nice all-in-one m-Atx board by abit
user who wish 2 build SFF HTPC got more alternative now

The new board may not be out that early, but the NF-M2 nview is slated to be discontinued very soon. I can't see abit releasing a new board unless its based on the nforce 6xx series chip, and that chipset is not supposed to be available till middle of the year (taking into account time for it to hit the market)

The nforce 6xx series chipset that has a Geforce 70xx integrated graphics will have near identical specs to the 6150/430 chipset used on the NF-M2 nview, differences are that there is one less IDE connector, HDMI support is added and the number of USB sockets is increased to 12. If the picture of the AN-M2HD from CEBIT is any indication, the specs are probably accurate, and the board uses the chipset in question; though this raises the question of how did Abit obtain the chipset to build an actual model of the board when its supposedly not yet available.
