Jeremy,

Here are a couple of other places you may wanna look for info on  
technical specs.

This is a bit dated (2003), but may be more reliable than the fansite:

http://www.cableworld.com/cgi/cw/show_mag.cgi? 
pub=cw&mon=040703&file=whos_making_hidef.inc

There is also some discussion in the forums on www.cinematography.com

Hopefully, this helps.
