Last word I heard from E. Arthur Brown company was that they had stopped taking
orders for the ST Video Box and were refunding money for orders that had already
been received.

According to their explanation, when they started bench testing the ST Video
Box, they found that it would consistently "burn-out/ fail" after a couple of
days use.  They went on to apoligize for not adequately testing the product
before starting the Ad campaign.  The inventor of the ST Video Box is, according
to E. Arthur Brown company, in the process of investigation/re-design of the
circuitry involved.

If anyone has heard that a new/improved ST Video Box has been released, please
let me know.....
