With all the uber-camera fighting for the spotlight, useful little devices like this go unnoticed.

The Catapult will be available in the second half of 2006 and will be priced under $300.

At first I didn't get this - Firewire from Camera to Catapult and then to USB 2.0 HD? But I guess that's fine if it all works. Given the strength of eSATA, I think that this would really go over well with this kind of box. In any case, this is what I would expect this sort of thing to cost rather than Firestore's hefty price tag. I will certainly be watching this.
