...bit tall for an endtable, but I have been considering heating the back
bedroom with one next winter.

Since SGI is (soon?) ending support of the Motorola boxes I would hope
that they would consider making generally available the 4sight port
(well, maybe not port, really..., it had to be developed somewhere...)

be happy to shoot themselves in the foot with it. I know I would.
