"Schick seems to be implying that Banshee can be upgraded by adding an extra TMU without a change in the Banshee chip itself"

I'm not sure why adding a second TMU would require a second chip. It should be very easy to integrate a second TMU into Banshee in the next chip spin. They get a lot more room when they shrink to .25. I figure they could also add a good size texture cache while they were at it.
