Not quite sure where to post this one but I can definately see it being one of my next purchases.

Tired of watching your downloaded media and movies on the computer. Tired of burning DVDs and converting the files to be recognised on your Home theater DVD player...

Beats the heck out of building an entire rig to do the same job. Not to mention SILENT operation.

We need a review of this piece!! Nudge Nudge.:thumb:

I wonder how it scales video, and what silicon is in it...WD needs to send me one.

Wow! That's actually kinda slick. As this review says if you don't already have a media solution like an HTPC or Apple TV etc... this is by far the easiest and cheapest way to get one. Here's the review.

I agree. Very interesting gadget. I might pick one up if there's a sale. Wait, why is it in the hot deals section if it's not on sale?

Well 1st because I was not sure where to place it and because compared to all the other solutions out there it is a hot deal.

In any case this should make it all better... It is on sale at Newegg.

Pretty sure I say this for $119 on RFD. Think it was even TigerDirect. But I'd rather pay the extra $5 and get it from Newegg.

Man it's damn hard to go wrong at that price, that's for sure.

i have heard that they have a lot of play back problems (only reason i don't own one yet i have computers every where this would help )

 

[thenewguy001]

^ is this a new product? Maybe we should wait for a new revision then.

 

[CasheKicker]

Well I am looking at user reviews and they look pretty good thus far, a few small issues but nothing that is not easily remedied. Compared to the price and complications with other solutions... This looks like a great product.
