RNP SAAAR approaches - who is/will be doing them?

Looks like this type of approach is the future, especially after the uplink capability to use Differential GPS is established, certified and trained to be used. I.E. we will have CAT III approaches with lower minima basically everywhere in the world where the airports will buy such equipment (probably a heck of a lot cheaper than ILS).

But at the moment I am just curious who is presently already doing these kind of approaches at all?

Rumors tell me that Northwest is either already certified or at least going for it.

And then I know that Emirates is in the training phase for all to be qualified as soon as they get the approval which they expect around later this year.

Anyone else?

I'll be looking forward to that step ahead in the future, just imagine the possibilities...
