It occurs to me that it might be of interest to those as are following
this thread that I believe that the Fisher-Price "toy" video
camcorder uses this type of technology.  Regardless, I think the
original question was "what's a cheap way to get video signals for a
project?" and the Fisher Price camcorder (alone) is around $80. Its
awful grainy though...a real video camera (just a camera) is only
~$130, so this may not be too useful.
