D-Link Announces MovieNite Plus (DSM-312)
You’d be forgiven if it seems like D-Link just introduced the “MovieNite” because it’s only been a few months since the DSM-310 was announced. Obviously they are discrete devices, with the first rev offering only six channels – VUDU, Netflix, Pandora, YouTube, Picasa, and mydlink. More is better, and channel count matters; so today we get the “MovieNite Plus” (DSM-312) which builds on the existing capability, adding 130+ apps and content sources for about $30 ($79.99) more than the earlier model. Check out the full PR and PDF spec sheet after the click.
