but it connects to your TV (via HDMI or other connections) and lets you access your media from your PC. Apparently, it can play 1080p movies, DVDs, music, photos and movies on a built-in hard drive. It can also be used as a DVR by connecting a tuner adapter, sold separately.
Not a bad idea, but there are lots of other products like it. But is it really worth $520? Who would want to buy this except media geeks and early adopters?
Sure it looks cool and I'd love to play with it, but do I really need it? Check out the manufacturer's page here for more info.
