Why is it that every time I see an article here on Engadget with a product that can't be found at Wal-Mart, you guys always write about how overpriced it is. Can't you understand that just because you can not afford it does NOT make it overpriced? Seriously, how many car blogs lament the overpriced Lamborghini's and Jaguars? How many computer blogs complain that the latest graphics card monstrosity is $500 too expensive? Just because you are poor (and I am not by any means rich here either!) does not give you license to bash products that cost a lot. I am tired of your rants on "overpriced" cable, your feelings on $20,000 projectors, and your disdain for, well, really, anything over $100. Give me (and your other readers) a friggin' break! If its too expensive for your blood, say so, but don't resort to bashing a product that really is ahead of the market just for being out of your financial reach!

Have you ever played with one? The graphics look like they were designed by a developer. Seriously, it is more like Windows 3.1 then OS X.
Sure, if it did Blu-ray in addition to what it does, then maybe, but any way you dice this one it is a rip-off.
