Also check out WireFly they have the Droid for $150 with no rebates or anything. The Eris is going for $70. Let's Talk has the Eris for an even better $50 with no rebates as well which is pretty sweet.
@ ryne: I take it you don't watch much in the way of sports. You can't watch much for free. With something like this you'd have to sign up for the MLB package (except you'd get blackouts for games in your own region since they are already on TV), something for NBA, and something for the NFL (maybe local feeds are available online). I don't see what you get for free on Boxee, which I have on my HTPC.
I have one of their products to wirelessly transmit audio to my rear surround speakers and it works pretty well. As some have mentioned, in the end you have more cables than if I had run them straight from the receiver, but at least this way they don't go across my living room (a no go with the wife). Since the rear speakers are mainly just for filling in with the sfx this solution works fine. I wouldn't use it for primary speakers though since the little receiver/amp would'nt have enough power to run them well.
OK. Why don't you amuse us by telling us how in the world the iPhone has anything to do with this discussion. We're talking about a DVR, which Apple does not do (El Gato us an option but that's third party and not as good). So quit trolling!
@Pip: You can't tell the difference on such a small screen unless you're up against it like a computer monitor. Anybody watching this will be at least a few feet away rendering the whole 1080p vs 720p meaningless. You should look at the charts they have posted in this site before showing when the resolution makes a difference, it is based on screen size and viewing distance.
BTW: For a computer monitor then the difference is noticeable because it allows you to fit more content in the screen (i.e. more windows, more of a picture...)
"I have a MacBook Pro and an Xbox 360 and I would like to get a 20- to 24-inch display that will support both devices. The speakers should be inbuilt, or there should be an aux out on the display to hook up external speakers. Help! Please!"
