It sounds very similar to the latest versions of vBulletin I've seen on some boards. The real time updating and editing of posts anyway. The real time display of other's updates is new, but here's a key thing I have to bring up.
If someone else updates while I'm scrolling through a page reading a post, will it screw up my view, as in scroll it up or down slightly? That is the sort of thing that should be resolved.
On a small board like this, I wouldn't expect crippling delays, but on busier boards how's the slowdown handled?

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
