I have no idea what to make of this since there’s no price associated, but my guess it’s going to be quite a bit more than Chromecast, but it also has a whopping 1TB of data–ONE. I must be missing something as far as how practical this is, and there’s no screenshots of the UI. Would love to test one […]
Read moreASRock has been around for a while and always load their motherboards with tons of features at a very affordable price. This Z87 based motherboard is a bit different as it’s on the higher priced spectrum, but these guys seem to like it. With that said, today we’ll be reviewing out the ASRock Z87E-ITX motherboard, which as you may expect […]
Read moreI’m not sure this is very surprising news, but it’s great to see more research firms continue to evolve as these social networks play a bigger part of our lives. I for one just hope Twitter eventually implements the *spoiler* feature we’ve seen recently from others so I can actually use twitter when I’m behind on some shows. Nielsen is […]
Read moreSimple.TV is an app that’s hoping to help you record shows to a hard drive and then stream them to numerous devices, is continuing to expand their range of support. Google recently released Chromecast and we’ve been working on native support that we plan to deliver once Google gives us the high-sign. We’re also a new member of DLNA (Digital […]
Read moreI’m not quite sure I understand the motivation behind this box, but it is a unique and small looking package. Leveraging the steam OS–but I think it has a regular OS too? I’m not sure why someone would spend the money on this versus a Falcon, Maingear or other pre-built computer. With one of Valve’s other announcements last week, […]
Read moreInteresting to see a big cable provider fail miserably at trying to compete with Netflix. Although charging extra for a box just for this, and then charging more per month…seems like it was doomed from the start. That’s where Netflix has the edge, given the vast number of devices which already support it–or heck, even just getting a $35 Chromecast. […]
Read moreI’m not sure how great these types of all-in-one machines work in the real market, but the appeal is certainly there. And unlike some other gadgets/toys, the hybrid actually makes sense. It’s still TBD how well it works in real life, but at $178, it seems like a fair deal. Taking tips from the likes of custom systems like the […]
Read moreThis has the word “intrigue” all over it. As Apple TV has quietly been chugging along amidst many rumors, this hire has to raise some eyebrows and at least reaffirms that the goliath is not just yet abandoning this powerful platform. Curious to see what comes of it. During his earlier career at CableLabs, Mulé also served as VP of […]
Read moreControl 4 recently went public, and I’m sure this deal can only help their stock price. While it’s a bit odd, given the cost of a Control 4 system, and that Dish is the low cost satellite solution, it’s a good way for them to get their name across and possibly gain future customers. DISH and Control4 have teamed up […]
