I've been looking at Videovision also (see post in .multimedia) but
have heard that its resolution is 24 frames per second. Q.  Is Radius
trying to establish a consumer standard resolution of 24 fps or are they
going to do like the Video Spiget thing and have two versions, the 
professional board (at a different resolution) costing more money?  
Also, I thought the standard was 30fps, 30-drop, or 29 fps; where 
does 24fps come from?  I would also like to see the incorporation of
Vertical Integrated Time Code (read and write) but then again maybe 
they've stuck a different standard there too.  Oh well, hopefully 
someone at Radius will hire a consultant or two to help them create 
a product that can work cohesively with existing project studios.  
Synchronization seems to be an ongoing exponential problem when 
cutting and pasteing and 24 fps doesn't help much once the rest of
the industry decides on an algorhythm to fix the current problems with
the current standards.  Additionally, my oppinion is based on what 
I've heard which is unfortunate because in the literature I have on 
the product there is no mention of resolution.  It would be nice to see 
more specifications and less copywriter comparison stuff so that we'd 
have a better view of things.  After all, if its in writing it must be true,
especially with all the pretty color pictures and all.
