Engadget HD catches the Media Center DirecTV HDPC-20 in action

admin — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 16:11:47 +0000

The crew over at Engadget HD was part of a tour of the Microsoft eHome lab and was lucky enough to catch the un-announced DirecTV HDPC-20 in testing. Unfortunately Microsoft wasn’t ready to announce any new products and even reminded everyone that things in the lab don’t always make it to market. But despite this, we still have our hopes up that we’ll one day soon be able to watch DirecTV HD on Windows Media Center.

Neuros intros web video-playing Neuros LINK

admin — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 19:11:40 +0000

It’s just been a few short months since Neuros started shipping its OSD 2.0 set-top box, but it looks like the company is now already moving on to other devices that are equally boxy and open source-y. It’s latest is the Neuros LINK, which promises to let you watch videos from Hulu, YouTube and other sites on your TV without a subscription courtesy of Neuros’ own Neuros.TV service. Unlike the OSD, however, it doesn’t look like the LINK has any internal storage of its own (at least beyond the bare necessity), but it does have a generous six USB ports to let you hook up some drives filled with music, photos or videos. Otherwise, you can expect both HDMI and optical S/PDIF outputs, as well as gigabit ethernet, 802.11b/g WiFi, and an included wireless “keymote” complete with a trackball. According to Neuros, while the device is available now for $300, it’s still in a “gamma release,” which means is primarily aimed at early adopters wiling to accept a few hiccups along the way.

Giant International’s touchscreen Intouch IT7150 photo frame: disembodied hand not included

admin — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 17:11:22 +0000

Not that we’d expect any reputable digital picture frame manufacturer to consort with a real, live hand model, but we’ve gotta hand it to Giant International for discovering this particularly unnatural, eerily glowing appendage to point vaguely at its new Intouch IT7150. Lucky for us, the device in question is not at all cheap and uninviting, featuring a 7-inch 800 x 480 LCD touchscreen, 802.11b/g WiFi, USB to PC connection cable and the standard complement of memory card slots. What makes this particularly fun is vTuner support, which allows for play back of 11,000 radio and TV stations (primarily public access and other undesirables on the TV side), in addition to the increasingly standard FrameChannel service for photo sharing and RSS subscriptions. There’s also a built-in rechargeable battery for about 1.5 hours of portable use. At $349, you’re certainly paying a pretty penny for all these good times, but if vTuner isn’t your bag, you can drop that support and pick up the frame for $299.
