I just got back from Amazing Computers in San Antonio, and they had a video
from Comdex.
 
On the tape was the A3000UX, with the A2410 (I'd been calling it the 2340). 
It looked really nice, and they were even running live video in a window.  The
interface (what I could see of it) looked just like Sun's version of Open
Look.
 
The A3000UX was configured with 9M of RAM (1M Chip, 8M Fast), a 200Mb hard
drive, the A2410 board, EtherNet, NFS and TCP/IP, etc.  The Commodore
spokesperson said about $5K for students.
 
The A2410 card displays 24bits at a resolution of 1024 x 800...I don't know if
you can use an A1950 moniter because they had it hooked up to what looked to
be a 16 or 19" Mitsubishi.  Very impressive.
