I'm still strongly considering ditching my 32" Aquos for a GDM-FW900. I have a new question though: Is there a relatively cheap way to transcode a composite and/or S-Video signal into a VGA or RGBHV (5 BNC) signal? A big draw of jumping to the FW900 is multiple scan rates which would allow me to display old game systems (and my Wii) at their native resolution. Problem there is connecting them to the monitor. I can use something like an X2VGA to connect the component systems (PS2, X-Box, Wii) but I'm stuck with composite and occasionally S-Video on older consoles like the NES, SNES, N64, Genesis, etc. So is there anyway to connect them via VGA or RGBHV without breaking the bank? I'd really going for acceptable PQ here, I'm not expecting an immaculate image. I just don't want them to look like crap.

GeniaTech HD Game Box. Accepts composite, s-video, and component video and outputs via VGA up to 1920x1200. There are some flaws so be sure to read the reviews on amazon before purchasing. http://www.amazon.com/Geniatech-HD-GameBox-Converter-Switcher/dp/B001463UNI

Actually this relates to a question I've had about the FW900, one of which I am in the market for currently. Does anyone know if the FW-900 supports Sync On Green through it's VGA input? I know some Trinitrons do, and this would allow a very simple Component to VGA connection as you wouldn't need to generate sync signals. Just a thought.
