There's some info on it here.

Depending on whether or not you plan to use a TFT or Genlock it may be better to wait for the Indivision AGA as that should work with pretty much everything.

The 1200 version is just a few days away, although you'll have to wait until early next year if you have an A4000.

If you have an OCS or ECS amiga then it's a case of get what you can, but if bidding on ebay try get carried away with the price.

If the price ends up higher than a MiniMig, and you only use an unexpanded Amiga for playing games, then things are getting a bit silly.

As for picture quality you'll have to ask someone else.

If you haven't purchase a TFT yet, it may be worth considering a an LCD.

I managed to find a thread with some pretty good advice on the web from the Melbourne Amiga User Group.

They said that LCD TV they have tried to date works with an Amiga, although they hadn't yet established which is best for the purpose.

They advised getting an Amiga 23 pin to 15 pin VGA adapter and taking your Amiga and the A/V cables you want to use to a local TV store to see what works best for you.

It might be quite amusing to see the reaction at the store too.
