Maybe someone can look it up for you or I will try to remember to check when I get home tonight. It seems to be just the right protection when you need a few more minutes to upload the story.
Things continue to change around here. Still waiting for the other shoe to drop on the Comcast purchase of NBC.

Thanks, I'll try and google search it out when I have time to breathe once again, with all that's going on it Haiti I have been doing near 20 hour days driving from Toronto to CFB Trenton and back shooting the military loading planes for Haiti, been using the live-via internet stuff a lot as well from the base and it's been working amazing but now I am leaning towards building a desktop into a pelican case as it would be more protected from rain as well as easy BNC/XLR connectivity as opposed to firewire with the laptop.

Perhaps for a desktop style unit I could get a video card that had firewire as well as RCA type connectors for video and audio and then just make my patch cables from there.

Amazing stuff though, just wish I had this 10 years ago.
