What's the expected cost?
I'll try to answer these questions.

1. It will be PAL first then NTSC next.
2. Currently needs it's own channel but I could easily offer an overlay option.
3. Expected cost. I notice the monochrome MAX video chip mentioned by someone else was around $9 in 1,000 off. I was considering under $10 for 1 off, not sure on quantity.
