You’ll have to forgive me, because I really don’t know much about this //V stuff. But anything with so many pretty lights and varied inputs must be impressive to someone in the know. For those who are, here are some specs on the V3HD FireWire Video Interface:

• HD/SD BNC connections
• Composite
• Component
• FireWire 400/800
• S-Video
• RS-422
• XLR input/output
• HDMI output

I suppose it’s all for capturing video and such (my "duh" statement for the month), and it can handle 32 simultaneous channels. Sounds impressive. No idea on pricing, and it should be available before the fourth quarter.
