Read moreI’m sure these reviews will begin to trickle down as more reviewers (including us hopefully) get their hands on the awesome new Boxee Box. This one is strictly a tear down (as far down as you would imagine). Still fun to see IMO. The Boxee Box is a cubist deviation from the traditionally rectangular set-top box. The oddly-shaped […]

Read moreDon’t totally fall out of your seat here, as the Nielsen survey does take into account all TVs into this. Out of those users with an HDTV set, the number dips to 20% which is about what I’d expect. There’s still some channels and cable companies that haven’t migrated–we have a poor forum user who had to bare through The […]

This time up he’s got a very slick interface for your iPad. You can use the application as a standalone product by adding titles by barcode, title searches or manual data entry, […]
Read moreNo way I was going to recommend "Grown Ups" which was a pretty painful movie IMO–and I consider myself an Adam Sandler fan. Knucklehead and Locked Down look fairly entertaining as well but I haven’t had a chance to view them yet. My heart wanted to select "Tremors" as the pick, which is one of my all time favorite gore-monster […]
Read moreBrent has the insight on this pretty sweet app for SageTV as far as watching your shows on an iPad or other mobile device. Just another reason why SageTV is pretty awesome given its great community support and development. SageTV Mobile streaming works much like AirVideo for iPhone does. It takes recordings from your SageTV System and converts (transcodes) those […]
Read moreHave you guys heard about this? Apparently over the weekend some users at TGB started complaining that their Linksys DMA Media Center Extenders pretty much stopped working. Ed’s still trying to get to the bottom of this, but it’s pretty bad press for Microsoft.
