What are the DVD and HDTV features? I haven't been through the .pdfs yet but I was hoping to see some more about these features. Do we need to wait for the board(s) announcement or is there more info from Matrox that I haven't run across yet? I've seen some info about 10-bit DVD but that's about it. I saw some info posted last night at other sites that I haven't run across yet from the Matrox materials:
