It's legitimate to hpe that Head direct could contact them in future, depending also in how sales, as well as real use feedback, go.
Rockbox porting doesn't work like that. There's no "Rockbox team" that decides which player to port Rockbox to. There has to be someone interested in getting Rockbox running on a device, and start coding. Since the Rockbox source is freely available and very well documented, Fang (or his coders/developers) could just use it and implement it on their hardware, completely free.
