Does anyone know anything about the new Video Blaster card?  It allows
video input of NTSC, PAL, and SECAM input from one ad I've seen!  All
for <$500.  But my question is, and I'm afraid I may be disappointed,
is that I can't seem to find out if the card will OUTPUT in *ANY* of
those modes.  I have a feeling it may only be an input card though.

If it could output video, then it would have some nice HMD
possibilities.  Does anyone have any more info on this?  I'm afraid
though that it's only going to be to input video.  Also, how come I
haven't heard any mention of using two Citizen Color LCD TV monitors
for HMD displays.  Each is under $200 and 2.8" large (next to 2.2" for
Casio).
