Just a note that this is a 10-bit display (10 per color) in the old  
way of
saying things.  We had these displays in 1995 but lost them due to
LCDs.  I don't believe that anyone has seen a demo of these.  They  
announced
a press release at NAB, but had no hardware available to show anyone.
Therefore has all of the trappings of vapor ware.  Look forward to  
seeing
it one day. (The Sony LCD is 10-bits too).
