Smart Camera VBAI License clarification

[Photon_Dan]

I recently misunderstood this so I am posting to warn others, and perhaps nudge the marketing folks around here to make a small change.

The Smart Cameras ship with VBAI, but it is not the full version of VBAI.  It only works with the Smart Cameras, not with GigE, IEEE-1394, CamaraLink, etc.  I misunderstood what "fully functional" meant when I read the description online I suppose.

I think a change to that wording is needed, but I would rather have a real full version of VBAI shipped with the Smart Cameras.  We have a use case where we are using four Smart Cameras and one FLIR camera (GigE).  It requires us to purchase a license of VBAI even though we have four "fully functional" ones in the Smart Camera boxes.
