On a side note, I hope Pro Tools finally gets something similar to Avid Open I/O in Media Composer. It is basically just an SDK available to video hardware developers that allows them to write their own plugins to use their audio/video hardware. Motu, Blackmagic, AJA, etc all seem to use it. There are some really big holes developing in the way Pro Tools I/O is being offered to users. You can use 256 I/O natively through coreaudio, but you can't have edge frame sync with video. If you want that, you are limited to 64 I/O and HD Native... or you've gotta buy HDX3 for 192 I/O even if you don't need DSP.

It is all a wee bit half-baked at the moment.

The only reason why people buy SyncHD, SyncX...
I don't think Avid are going to give up on that money.
