EhomeUpgrade Later this year users will get a virtual button added to their PC and cell phone software that "will boost home broadband service speed" for better video quality […]
Read moreIn one of the more obvious articles I've read in a while, CE Pro has some manufacturer insight into the market for HD & Blu-Ray DVDs, which…surprise, surprise, isn't doing so hot. Until everyone learns to get along, this is going to take a while. If you HAVE to have it, I say you cover yourself & just get a […]
Read moreHow "low cost" is $866 is beyond me, but GearDigest seems to think so, and their Day2 build will be a high end system which I can only imagine how much it's going to cost. Oh, and for $866, you get a 200gb hard drive, and that's to store HD shows as well…it's just baffling. Maybe someone else can make […]

Well, unfortunately if you're not in Australia this is kind of pointless, but I think it's good to see what companies are coming up with to compete with each other. Multifunction devices like this always concern me, as I feel a lot of times they make compromises. But then again, for $1500…is this that much more powerful than an HTPC? […]
Read moreOne of the developers of ReplayTV was kinda sorta put in the situation to go a year without a DVR and see how his life would be affected. I can't disagree more with his assessment that the main thing he misses is the guide. If my MCE goes down, I'm close to tears having to sit through all those commercials, […]
Read moreI got the e-mail but haven't been able to play around with it yet myself, but luckily Ian Dixon's posted some screenshots of the newly beta'd Big Screen Photos 2, which I must say looks quite impressive.

Read moreNot nearly as many pictures as I would have included…but I guess how many pictures of a projector do you really need? Another 1080p projector up for review, this time from the Home Theater Blog guys, which they definitely like.

Read moreEngadget was pretty fired up about this article from the Consumerist, but I don't see it as being nearly as obscenely priced when you think about it. How much would it cost to take a family of 4 to a movie these days? $12 per ticket is $48. Plus popcorn, drinks, candy, and you're EASILY over $50. Consider you have […]
Read moreBeing a PMCE owner, I'm really not all that surprised about this. The V1's were clunky and kind of a hassle if you wanted to get anything on there. Just couldn't compete with the thin, small & efficient Archos or Ipod Videos. Especially considering the lack of publicity. Oh well, rest in peace PMCE. Jason Tsang To summarize, the Portable […]
