Can I drool now or wait til later?

OK, soooooo, as the background of this blog tells ya in no uncertain terms, I dabble in a bit of 3D work, ok, that's an understatement, I'm addicted to it. Anyways, I have been looking for motion capture solutions for a while now because, let's face it, I know a bit of programming but I am in no way good enough to create a program that can do video, markerless capture. Weeeell, the guys at iPi soft are, and a new product they just came out with made my jaw drop.

It is a capture from video, markerless, more less equipmentless motion capture system which uses only a multiple camera setup (And I don't mean pro cameras, they're shown using the playstation eye camera for goodness sake!), space to record, and a decent computer with their software. I woke up today to see this in my inbox due to Daz's new product announcements (They're selling through Daz, nice idea there, or least it would be if it was a little more affordable, but no doubt they'll still get sales). The cost is around 500-ish, and that's with the 30% off opening sale, needless to say still out of my price range sadly.

None the less, this is a product I will be watching, have a feeling it'll prolly end up a member's choice item next year, man I hope that's the case, I REEEEEEALLY hope that's the case, it'd be worth waiting a year to get it at a price I could actually afford (hell, if the basic version was 150-200 I would find a way to budget it in within the coming months). Looking on the site, they do have some vids showing it's use, it actually seems like a pretty easy to use setup if your system can handle it, more less a match T-pose,  Match start pose, go forth and animate. Pretty straight forward and the animations it seems to produce are pretty nice quality from what I see on the vids, but don't just take my word for it, check it out yourself! On their official site or on Daz's product page for it.
 
I seriously wanna get this, sadly I have to wait for a good sale, food and household needs come before wants you know, til I can either save up that much (not holding my breath there) or catch a hell of a sale, I guess I'm just going to be stalking that product until I can find a way to afford it without going without food for a month. After all, I've already been looking for something like this for three years bout, waiting a bit longer won't hurt I suppose.
