It wouldn't surprise me if they were just more of the Berkshire FHS transcripts rather than digitised images. The Wiltshire PRs released last Friday were only transcripts and the press release mentions Warwickshire and Somerset too, the originals of which are on Ancestry so again are most likely FHS transcripts.
Now I hope I'm wrong but I definitely wouldn't get up too much hope for copies of the originals, especially in light of the attitude of the RO Archivist to digitising records. I hope he's changed his mind but we'll just have to be patient and wait and see, unless someone has some insider information. I agree though that Berkshire FHS coverage is very patchy even now, although I believe they have released some more recently.
That said, if the Buckinghamshire PRs mentioned in the same press release were from the FHS (rather than the Buckinghamshire Genealogical Society), then I'd be happy with those (would prefer of course images of the originals) as they have pretty much transcribed the whole county.
