- Well, this may conflict with an earlier posting where someone claimed that the
- TR101 will some day be able to provide TR101. I say "may" because in that
- posting it was not clearly explained how this might come about, although the
- person did say he had heard this from 2 Sony representatives. I see a number of
- possibilities, one being that a new version of the TR101 comes out, the other
- being that some latent functionality in its LANC protocol gets tapped by an
- editor. Having not seen the design of the TR101, I'm not in a position to say.
- However, it sounds like you know more about it, so if the TR101 can in no way
- get its RC time code out the LANC port, then it will have to be a new version of
- the TR101. This may inspire me to wait.
