This sentence has three qualifiers! (think, will, sometime) as well  
as the 'S' in parentheses which suggests 'not necessarily very wide'.
"I think C will be coming out with one or more new (S)WAs sometime."
And I was pointing out that it was announced now, not 'coming' in the  
possible interpretation of an announcement being imminent rather than  
the object itself. I was clearly commenting on the announcement  
itself, rather than the announcement of the existence of the lens. Tsk.
If you want to be pedantic, you're going to have to be a bloody site  
better than that - B minus.
