Assuming Andrea's sources called this one correctly, I'd say it's about time. Honestly, I'm a bit split about the 500 versus 600 debate. For birds, a 600mm on an a9 is very nice to have and with the weight savings of the newest glass, the 600 4 weighs only as much (or little) as the previous gen 500 4's, making them handholdable.
Then again, you can't cheat optics and the 600 4 will always be a brick to carry around, because of its length/size. In that sense a 500 4, especially one weighing as little as a 400 DO II would be the more convenient lens to move around with.
Regardless of whether it'll be a 500 or 600, I doubt that I could afford it and one probably would have to pre-order right away to avoid the waiting game we witnessed with the 400 GM.
