I have heard nothing.  It's about time to ask again.  I'll find out.

A month or so a go there was a long discussion on synth diy about this
subject.  I love ribbon controllers.  I expect I may end up buying that new
Kurzwell.  However, that is kind of expensive.  I am still recovering from
an accessory order of MOTM stuff (flat rails and proto-boards).

I bought it and sold it the same week.  The ExpressionMate suffers the MIDI 
syndrom; NOTES, not continuous pitch information.  So you slide your finger 
up and down the strip and you get a glissando, not portamento.  Blechhhh....
