Unfortunately, MLB.TV won't play games local to your market. here in Boston, the only way to watch the RedSox is by subscribing to a premium cable package that has NESN. I looked into the MLB.TV, and would gladly have paid the cash for it...but all local games are blacked out on it.

You should see what Amazon's take is on book publishers. They have so much power that my royalties on my books are 1/6th that of through sales of other outlets.

Yes, please. Thank you.

I'm curious about this, too. I'm going to assume it must, becasue the Gmail software for my current Blackberry manages multiple accounts, including custom domains...but would love someone else who knows what this actually supports.

You're right a larger sensor for useful high ISO images. I can't wait (fast forward a couple of years) until the top-of-the line cameras like this come with DSLR like sensors. Would meet 90% of my photography needs. I'd be willing to pay a premium for this to not have to lug around SLR. As it is now, I'm using my G9 for most of my photos and just wish that ISOs other than 100 were useful for anything other than converting to B&W.

I love my Popcorn Hour. It replaced an old XBox with XBox Media Center. It's so damn quiet.

The biggest thing I'd change is making the menu navigation speedier. I really miss how on my old XBox, the menu would render a new page of listings as quick as I could press the button. But the popcorn hour using some HTML/web based browsing technology, so it's slow. Nonetheless, while a bit inconvenient, it streams most anything.

Also, with the newer firmare, it seems that my harddrive stays turned off unless it's needed. For example, while watching a movie from a remote NAS, the harddrive doesn't spin up, which is great, because I love the silence. Did I mention it's silent?

Some other things I'd like to see: I'm only now starting to use it to act as a media streamer, so I'd like to see more support in those applications.

I think what they're quoting are costs to have a wirefree clean install. You know, cutting holes in the wall, running an HDMI cable up from your cable box, re-plastering the wall, painting, etc...

What's appealing to me about this type of idea is that of moving all audio/video components from having to be stored under the TV. They could be tucked next to the couch inside an end-table or something, which for my place would be nice.

What I'm also curious about is the wireless range. It would be pretty slick to have my one cable box hidden away and be able to send the HD video signal to different television sets in my bedroom or kitchen (places that don't have even COAX wired.)

@Jesse S, Actually, you're not correct. With Popcorn Hour, you can play all your content directly off a NAS directly via Samba or NFS. Only if you use the streaming services from a server does it resample. I play DVD ISO, HD MKV files, etc...with no problem in all their glorious HD beautify on my Popcorn hour.

The purpose is to allows those who don't want their HD-DVD player to be under the television. Imagine if you stored youre DVD player in a little hidden cabinet next to your couch. Then you'd no longer be walking across the room to change your dvd, just reach over.
But really, the purpose for this would probably be useful for those who have digital projector televisions and don't want to run a wire up to their ceiling. Or those who can't easily hide wires in their walls. It's really about ascetics. No wires and hiding your cablebox/av/dvd stuff out of the way.
For me, it would be great to have all my components hidden in the closet and with the 40' range, I can have a couple flywire receivers, one on the tv in the kitchen and one in the living room and could watch both from the same setup. This would be great for me (I'm making the assumption that I'd only be watching one device at a time, though, but the idea could be improved upon.)
It would be really great if this thing could mount to the back of an LCD television, so it doesn't take counter space.
Will watch what happens with this

one of the nice things about the TS-209 (i'm assuming the 409 will be similar) is that it uses low-wattage. I hate having a Windows Server on all the time drawwing 200 watts. The 209 uses something like 20 watts or so. So that's a big advantage. And this thing comes with a Linux on it already with Apache, MySql, Twonkeyvision, etc...
