I think this is the sort of thing to expect. If not FF, then very

simpler than the DMR) with lots (and lots!) of pixels.

I understand that there are no applicable patents to which the rights
cannot be bought or for which there are not reasonable work-arounds.

to. And I, for one, will be VERY surprised if they don't.
