At Friedrichshafen, last Ham radio 28 June, 2010, Icom Europe said that the IC-9100 would be released around September / October – The projected release is around October 2010?!
Watch the photo inside the IC-9100 (click below for larger images) !!→ Updating: Andrews Comm  Now it is * Due August/Sept? (see the link below)

The IC-9100 covers 100W on HF, 50MHz and 144MHz, 75W on 430/440MHz and 10W on 1200MHz (option). The radio simultaneously receives two different bands (1. HF/50MHz + VHF/UHF – 2. VHF + UHF – 3. 430/440MHz + 1200MHz) and works as if there are two independent receivers in one radio. (Source by © 2010 Icom Inc)

Two 32-bit DSP and double conversion superheterodyne → Each main and sub-receiver has a dedicated DSP unit → The D-STAR mode (option) is available in 28MHz and 50MHz  bands simplex mode as well as in VHF and UHF bands → USB connector for PC control → Modulator, received audio,  RTTY demodulator, DV mode data can also be transferred over the USB cable  → GPS position reporting functions → Satellite mode operation or even moonbounce → Optional CS-9100 programming Software → The built-in RTTY demodulator and decoder → Optional 1st IF filters for HF/50MHz bands → Optional D-STAR DV mode UT-121 Unit → And more Features: → Download the  new Brochure released from Icom Inc.

The all-round transceiver IC-9100: HF/50 MHz (100W) 144/430 MHz (50W) 1200 MHz (10W) with optional 1.2 GHz UX-9100 module. Optional D-STAR Unit, DV mode operation on the esport version.

* HF/50MHz, 144/430 (440)MHz  &1200MHz coverage (UX-9100 Optional)
* 100W     on HF/50/144MHz
* 75W     on 430 (440)MHz
* 10W     on 1200MHz >(UX-9100 Unit Optional)
* Roofing     15kHz (FL.431 3kHz/ FL-430 6kHz 1st IF Optional for HF/50MHz)
* D-STAR DV (D-STAR Unit optional in combination with operating bands and mode)
* Satellite mode operation
* SSB, CW, RTTY, AM, FM & DV (D-STAR optional)
* 32-bit floating point DSP & 24-bit AD/DA converter
* Double superheterodyne with 2nd IF image rejection mixer
* This device requires 13.8 VDC

Icom introduces a direct competitor to the Kenwood TS-2000 TS-2000x!…. The IC-9100 has only one main DSP unit. In the 9100′s price class, it would not be cost-effective to include a second DSP board (ADC, DSP, DAC, support IC’s) for dual receive. No VHF and UHF at the same time.

アイコムよりHF～1200MHz固定機が参考出品されるようです。

Basic details about its features and options have been made available on a Pre-release product information sheet .

(see the Icom.co.Uk  web page or the link above)

Icom ha presentato, alla recente Fiera dei radioamatori in Tokyo, il prototipo del nuovo IC-9100 un transceiver multibanda e multimodo, flessibile e ampliabile con vari opzional come la scheda UX-9100 per la banda di 1.2 GHz, la scheda per abilitarlo al D-STAR (DV mode) e due Roofing filters più stretti da 3 e 6 kHz, rispetto a quello in dotazione da 15. –
Icom introduce un diretto concorrente al Kenwood TS-2000 TS-2000x… IC-9100 risulta avere solo un Main DSP Unit , per mantenere l’apparato in una classe di prezzo medio e contenere il costo effettivo Icom non ha incluso un secondo DSP Unit (con ADC, DSP, DAC, support IC’s) per un doppio ricevitore. No VHF e UHF allo stesso tempo.

Ha filtri digitali con l’IF DSP dotato di un cip a 32-bit a virgola mobile e di un convertitore Digitale/Analogico 24.bit . Ha le stesse impostazioni operative e due sole conversioni IF con la 2nd a I/Q a rejezzione di immagine, così come fatto nel  recente IC-7600. Deriva dall’implementazione progettuale del IC-7400 con le più recenti risorse tecnologiche sviluppate per il 7700 – 7600 ed in parte trae esperienze dal IC-910 per i 1.200 e per le operazioni Sat. Ha un display monocromatico (con due tipi da selezionare). Include ben cinque connettori di antenna, l’accordatore ATU per HF e 50 MHz e tra l’altro anche una presa USB “B” sul pannello posteriore. Molte altre info si trovano sulla Pre-release sheet.
