The DVI standard is deliberately backwards compatible with VGA. The small grouping of contacts in a DVI connector are intended for analog VGA video signaling. Simple and inexpensive adapters are readily available. Digital visual interfacing (DVI) would quite possibly raise the price of this upcoming option for the P3 considerably. Personally, I like Eric and Wayne's choices of serial communications and VGA video because they're easy to work with and all of my computer gear supports both. Thanks Eric, Wayne, and the 'E' team.
