This podcast has an interview with a former umpire. He goes over the issues with the strike zone we are talking about. The interview begins at 17:35 and the strike zone stuff is at the beginning. The entire interview is absolutely fascinating. I recommend listening to it.

Good stuff. I listened to it though I still don't think any of us will know how it will impact the strike zone until they start using it. There are just too many variables right now with humans back there.
