I switched from a Flickerfixer to the CBM 2320 Display Enhancer board,
and pricewise it's cheaper, and it does more. First off, it automatically
detects what mode you're in and changes the way it works to accomodate the
mode. Along with deinterlacing an interlaced screen, it does something
called scan doubling rather than deinterlacing a non-interlaced screen, and
I think it looks slightly nicer than the non-interlaced screens did with
the flickerfixer. Also when 2.0 is available it will automatically detect
productivity mode, and passes thru the video signal whereas with the
FlickerFixer, you MUST switch to the 23 pin connector to use the screen. It
(the 2320) also has a pass thru switch, so you can shut off the board, and
not have to swap cables to still have video.
