Any rumours regarding Keplar GPU outputs?

Currently driving three monitors on nVIDIA hardware in 3d requires two cards SLI'd together; because they hacked the functionality in in response to Eyefinity.

I was just wondering if any of the rumours going around mentioned multiple display outputs greater than two? I'm getting 3 x Dell U2312HM monitors soon and I play BF3, so I should be able to get a cheaper GK104 chip that will compete well with the HD79x0 series in this game.

All I have been able to find is an old article here

You didn't look very hard.

Brown did not mention anything about the rumor which says, Kepler will be coming with native multi-monitor technology vs Eyefinity, which may be launched as a new version of its current Nvidia Surround technology, which currently requires using 2 GeForce video card to display games, videos and applications to 3 monitors. The new incarnation of Kepler Surround technology will use 3 to 5 monitors without requiring a 2nd board and eliminate the need for third-party chips to achieve this function. It should be remembered that manufacturers like Galaxy/KFA2 offer solutions based on Nvidia GPUs with support for 3, 4 and 5 monitors, but this is possible with ViewXpand VMM 1400/1402 chip, which is not a native capacity of the current Nvidia GPUs .

Thanks, and it wasn't really that I didn't look very hard, I just didn't remember that the nVIDIA terminology was nVIDIA Surround technology. I was searching google with the following search term (although I'd tried numerous variations on that):
'nvidia 600 series triple display'
