This is a "buy now" item at $450 so I don't know how much it would reach in a bidding war but I checked the manual on this online and it seems to do a whole heck of a lot, including converting RGB signals, doubling horz scan rate and so forth. Kinda pricey but if you do video with the Amiga it might well be worth it! I'm thinking about it...

Better get something like the XRGB-2, it's much cheaper and especially targeted at console-geeks that want to achieve best image quality via RGB:

except when you look for a price you find that they don't seem to make it any more. Or at least it is unavailable from the manufacturer.... so once again the Amiga is screwed by people who don't have a big enough market to justify their work... which makes me hate profit-motive transactions even more... I mean, why not just make it available, break even and be satisfied that you helped some folks do their thing?? Oh well....
