Sure, here's some quotes from the spec sheet (real boards expected in a month
or two, from what I hear):

	o $5995 list price, one PC/AT slot, self configures to 8/16 bit bus
	o bus clock 6 to 12 MHz supported
	o 34010 graphics processor with 4 MB of dual-ported CMOS video RAM
	o video crosspoint
	o binary (1x, 2x, 4x,...16x) and clock (.5,.75,1,1.25,1.5,...32x) zoom
	o Multiple resolutions, up to 1Kx1Kx32 bit, 2Kx1Kx16 bit, 2Kx2Kx8 bit
	o 4 8-bit real-time capture channels
	o same board NTSC and PAL compatible
	o programmable pixel clock (up to 28.6 MHz)
	o independent smooth H and V panning
	o look up tables for both input and output
	o separately programmable capture and display resolutions
	o selectable interlaced/noninterlaced display
	o full genlock
	o can add separate board with extra processor RAM, up to 12MB
	o comes with DGIS*34010 software (written by GSS)

Is that enough info? I'll be playing with one of these things as soon as they
are available.
