Subject: Technical Info on Fisher-Price Camcorder??

I'm inquiring in behalf of an associate who doesn't regularly
mess with UNIX (tm).  He's doing some experimentation with video
recording techniques and would like to get some information about
the Fisher-Price monochrome camcorder.

He's inquired with F-P's customer relations dept. and they haven't
been very helpful.  I seem to recall seeing some article in something
like the IEEE Spectrum or the EE Times a while back that had a fair
amount of information about the general desingn and a few of the innovative
things they did to make the thing work as well as it does at such a low cost.

If anyone can provide any general technical info on this thing, please email
to me and I will forward it,  or send it by "hardware" mail to:

Dan Yerkovich

Thanks in advance.
None of this has anything to do with Physio-Control, except that we both
work here and, well, there's this nice computer....
