Gotta agree with you there.
Fantavision was just utterly fantastic!
My brothers and I spent many many happy hours mucking about with it on a
second-hand A2000 my brother bought (with which came Fantavision).

It certainly was unique and there was nothing else like it. I never understood
why it was never updated or why other companies didnt fall over themselves to do
their own variations of the idea.

Until Macromedia came along with Flash - which is the closest thing I have seen
to Fantavision.

But I agree - a 2001 version of FV for AmigaOS4.x would be swell!
