       This question was brought up before, so I took the time to
locate a brochure I saw for a machine that does this very thing. A
company called Instant Replay manufactures equipment along this line.
Their prices range from $600 to $1200. They are located in Miami,
Florida and their phone number is (305)-448-7088.
