Wow, I just checked out the popcorn hour, and how come you guys dont give more love to that A110. It will bitstream out the HD audio feeds, plays iso files for straight rips of dvds, and everything under the sun you could want it too. for 215 bucks, drop a 1Terabyte hard disk in there, and wait for some 30gig .torrent files to download and presto, this thing will kick Vudo's ass. Oh wait i cant get the BD-live features of listening to Sally in Kansas's commentary on how each scene was crafted by Satan and I am going to hell for enjoying the new batman flick. shucks.
But seriously, the best thing about this is that I dont need some special PC software like UPNP servers or WMC. It can view files over the network, and you can see it from your PC. This means that even say even a PIII with a 100 mbit NIC can be your media server.
Hey Ben, FYI class does NOT end the first week of December for most colleges. The last week of classes may be the first or second week of December, but then you're also forgetting finals which are the second of third week of December, more likely third week for schools on semesters vs. quarters.
