Nope ... They'll all output PAL60. I had a similar problem with an NTSC
only rear projection set that I had ... I needed a standards convertor
that I could just stick in line and forget about so it had to take PAL,
NTSC *AND* PAL60! As sson as I needed PAL60 support the cost of the
standards convertor more than doubled as it's not a valid video
standard.

It isn't ... As long as you don't start throwing in the bastard format
that is PAL60 - which should have been killed at conception.
