Upcoming review of DV500/RT2000?

[nilsp]

Hey,

wondering if you're planning a review/shootout of the DV500 and RT2000? Also, a review of the Sony DCR PC100?

We'll probably get the DV500 a good while before the RT2000, so they'll likely end up as separate reviews.

Ad for the PC100 - yes, when we can get hold of one.

When reviewing these new "realtime" systems can you also include comparisions on features/value for Pro systems like Avid, Media 100 and Digisuite. Also quote costs for the full system inc. DV player, preview monitor etc.

I am in the process of raising funds to buy a new NLE system for our college and was thinking of the Digisuite LE as the Avid & media 100 were out of our price range. But these new cards add a whole new dimension.

Cheers

The RT2000 seemed very buggy, it crashed twice during a demo, at the Digital Media show yesterday at Wembley Arena.

Imported Alpha Channel graphic failed to be transperent, acted like a cut out... Adobe had to be restarted to clear this problem.

And still no firm date for release.
It Still looked good, hopefully they can sort out supply problems
