Hmm, perhaps. But my suspicions lie with the Second Sight itself. I just
don't think it's a very well designed card, and despite the delays, it
seems to have been rushed out. I really can't judge the hardware other
than how problematic it is, but the firmware needs a lot of work still. It
is a card with a lot of potential which may never be realized due to bad
handling by Sequential. :-(
