Audio Technica has announced AT2022, a new condenser stereo XY microphone with 90 and 120 degree options. Similar to the rode NT4, but including narrow and wide stereo recording. Here is the official information from AT:

The AT2022 is a condenser microphone designed for stereo recording. Two unidirectional condenser capsules in an X/Y configuration pivot to allow for narrow (90°) or wide (120°) stereo operation.
