ZINNET, a company we've mostly seen hocking digital converter boxes to old-school broadcast TV owners, has just announced the brite-View line of media devices for digital download fans. The CinemaCube ($89.99) plays media from either an attached USB hard drive or over your home network, supports RM, RMVB, MP2, AVI, H.264, VOB, MOV, MKV, DivX, Xvid, and WMV video files up to 1280X720 HD (720p), and sports its own bittorrent client. Air HD ($399.99) is a wireless HD transmitter and receiver kit that supports up to 1080i@60Hz, 1080p@24Hz HD picture quality / 30Hz HD quality with less than 1ms latency, up to 70 feet. We'll be interested in seeing how these guys stack up against some of the other players out there -- in the meantime, peep the gallery below.

I dunno, maybe I just got Michael Jackson on the head but..
Three of the guys in that picture are dead (two of cancer, one of heroine). Joey actually died at the same age as Jackson.
Just find it weird that the head article (when I loaded the page) includes three dead rockers... like some strange tribute / reference to Michael Jackson.

Mmm another device suspiciously devoid of UI shots. Price sounds about right though.

there is a $5 coupon code going on as the launch special to be applied at Amazon checkout. Coupone code is BVCINEMA. This makes the product $84.99 shipped.
On another note, why isn't it mentioned that this unit comes with PC free torrent download function?
