While I'm sure everyone will be glad to hear confirmation from Transtech
that the T9000 has at last arrived, they might also like to hear that 
boards and systems are available from several sources.

Parsys have some very nice looking and well engineered boxes which can
take up to 32 (if I remember rightly) T9s, with a few C104s connecting
them all together. All the T9s are on HTRAMs (you can buy either INMOS
or Parsys HTRAMs fitted in the box), and the box is interfaced to
Ethernet.

Sundance have a TRAM (not HTRAM) which provides four OS-links and all
six DS-Links, with a small amont of shared memory between a T4 and the T9.

Quintek showed a couple of graphics and image processing HTRAMs at 
Wotug17 back in April.

Telmat have taken over Archipel's SBus interface to a T9, and have boxes
similar in function to the Parsys boxes.

Caplin showed a SCSI HTRAM at Wotug17.

And of course INMOS have some of their own kit.

(and as I left Alta out last time, doubtless they have something 
too?) 

This list is not exhaustive, and is not intended as endorsement of any of 
the products mentioned.
