The Omega Deck series of digital recorders combines the industry's best image quality with a
comprehensive feature set and a comparatively low price, which is the hallmark of Fast Forward
Video's products. The Omega Deck digital recorder is also designed to develop and evolve as the
industry changes. New features are implemented regularly,
most of which can be easily implemented
by the deck’s firmware, down-loadable via FFV's Web site,
http://www.ffv.com (see page 8 for
instructions). Because of this, the Omega Deck series will NEVER become obsolete
.
