Epson Crystal Clear Proofing Film

From Epson release:

"Epson America has expanded its line of professional proofing media through its Epson Professional Imaging division. The expanded portfolio now includes ... Crystal Clear Proofing Film...

All of the papers are optimized for use with Epson inks, including new Epson UltraChrome HDR ink technology, and are designed to provide superior color accuracy and stability for general proofing, composition, and contract proofing.

...Crystal Clear Proofing Film will be available in January 2009."

I wonder if this stuff transmits UV - and what it will cost.

This is interesting news. Here in Canada OHP materials are hard to come by. No-one sells Pictorico and the selection of other brands is very limited.

Anyone know what the pricing will be like?
