Good News, Congratulations!! Althrough the price is high, this product will be written in the history. I think the main market of the first release should be aimed at universities and academic agents. The professors on academic perfer freedom more than engineers in company :-) With supporting of the academic funds, they may afford the high price. If you can bring this card to the Siggraph 2008, that will be a good advertising and may attract many eye-balls. Try to send a paper to the journals on Computer Graphics. As a anti-traditional hardware project, maybe they will accept it with glad. To be honest, being a student, I can't afford this price. But i will keep an eye on this project and will contribute codes and ideas one day. Now, I'm fighting for my degree and hacking Linux kernel codes......... A huge mount of docs, academic papers, codes need to be read....
