Did a search and didn't see anything about these. Here's a vid showing the new ball joint arms for the Wicked Edge sharpener (coming soon).

They talk about them over on the Wicked Edge website:
"We're very proud to announce that our entry in this year's Blade Show and International Cutlery Fair was voted Accessory of the Year! We entered the prototype of our new Pro-Pack II sharpener. It's built on the same platform as the Gen II sharpener, so anyone wishing to upgrade an existing system will be able to. Some of the exciting new features are:
New Ball Joints
Micro Angle Adjustments of +/- .05 Degrees
Vise Jaw Riser allowing for angles as low as 13 degrees (and lower depending on the width of the knife)
Inclinometer by iGaging
The new Micro Fine 1.4 Micron and .6 Micron Ceramic Stones Pack
1/.5 Micron Diamond and Leather Strops Pack
We should have these ready to roll out sometime in the next 4 weeks."
Sounds like a cool upgrade, but I suspect it just means even more backorders.
