Report back how it works in all modes, NTSC, PAL, multiscan, interlace, tearing issues, banding, maybe a few pics, etc.

Right now all we know about it is that it can survive an airplane crash.

^This. I'll add that some pics of the internals would be nice, too. Well, assuming it's not welded shut or something.:lol:

If is based on GBS-8200 ($33.00) or similar variant, then is not perfect. It works fine with some artifact around mouse pointer, the interlace mode was rock steady. Personally I could not get PAL to work. The only was to find out is to open it and let us know the model number.
Was sold for GBP 101, kinda steep.

You are CORRECT, I guess you don't know where you going to need it.
Should be called "Afghanistan Edition"
