cassie capabilites? 16:9???? HELP Can't Post

I'm thinking of getting a Casablanca Firewire and am trying to find out the pros and cons opposed to a G3 with a Firewire card and final cut pro.... any advice?
I also need to know if it will render FULL RESOLUTION to 16:9 that I'm shooting on a canon XL-1... as well as if I'll have any problems with the pixel shift of full frame mode...
THANKS..
JOSH

16:9- they don't support it Can't Post

I just got off the phone with Draco's tech sales and they do not support the XL-1 16:9 compressed aspect ratio.

Josh -
Like I told you in my e-mail - the XL1 won't give you full resolution in 16:9, and you are not going to make up for that with any editing system.
