This seems like it would simply be killer. Its rather annoying that its not slated for the 06 model.

Freaking A.. 2008? That is a lifetime away. What is taking so long? I would like it in next year's model [:@][:@][:@][:@][:@][:@][:@][:@]

It almost makes me want to buy a TT instead of an S4...

DSG is only currently available on Transversly mounted engines. They havn't developed one for a longitudinal one yet. Marc Trahen from Audi USA said they are just not technically there yet with that transmission.
