I know a couple of fast turnaround reality tv producers who would crawl
across a field of broken glass for this sort of functionality.

You can edit from your summer home now with local software...what's the
difference? I was testing iChat Share Screen the other day with another
editor, where I "shared" his screen and did a couple edits on his Avid
from my laptop. The experience was totally unacceptable. This has a lot
of "wow" factor, but with software and storage so cheap, why not have it
local? I would rather have Avid spend its money on other critical needs
than something like this. Just my humble opinion...
