I believe the NeXT Dimension board from NeXT is actually using JPEG
to do their real time compression and de-compression of video and the
Unit he demonstrated at Seybold was real and was slick. I don't think
it is outrageously expensive either.

I think it uses the C-Cubed chip and an i860 video processor and I think
a 68040 as well. No shappy quantity of cycles there!
