ATI 5850 Video Card Display Limits

ATI 5850 Video Card Display Limits I have a question regarding new ATI 5 series. I heard that there will be a special version of 5 series that supports up to 6 displays. What about a regular 5 series? I see a regular 5 series have 2 DVI + 1 HDMI + 1 DISPLAY PORT. Can I connect 4 displays at once?

"You can connect up to 5 displays if you will buy MST (Multi Stream Transport) Hub and connect it to display port. It is not cheap (about 150$).
