    I played with it for about fifteen minutes with a japanese tech guy. Good build, very rugged, similar to a DVCpro tape fieldeditor. Great for professional I/O ( HD/SDI,…). The unit even has a build in NLE for editing: you can call up a basic timelineview on the monitor, and move shots around and trim audio tracks.

    Cons in my opinion: If you want to use it as a deck for long recordings, you’re gonna need a lot of P2 cards. Although, since it has firewire and USB, it should be possible to connect a Firestore. Also, for editing, if you don’t need the I/O, you probably better of with a laptop which has more functionality for a fraction of the price. If you’re going IT, better do it all the way…
