I am surprised. I had word from someone who should know it that ATi are going to rework the whole OpenGL driver code and that they will probably need half a year or so to do that.
Maybe they have just introduced some anisotropic filtering optimizations for OpenGL that were only used for DirectX in older drivers.

People in german forums report between 2 (R9800) and 30 percent (X800) speed increase in Doom3 with Cat 4.9 beta. Nothing about image quality yet...
