My apologies for the mispresentation. I got my hands on a Second Sight
card a short while ago just as some friends got back from a trip to
Ireland. So I naturally looked at a few of their pictures on the Second
Sight card. I could've sworn I used ThirdView to do it, but I'll take
your word for it that I didn't. :-)
Maybe it was JpeGS. Does it support the Second Sight?

I think I'm about to cry. When you have something like that, back it up!
If not for yourselves, do it for the rest of us. ;-)
I remember JVPreRelease. It's still my favorite jpeg viewer. Much faster
than the others I've tried, even if it is limited to greyscale.

A quality product, BTW.
