Re: Some interesting features Interact with other devices?
Interact with DRM locked devices by intel only. "portable media players, DVD players, TV sets and stereos".
Lets put odds on it's ability to do things that I (and most people) find important. Odds are, it can't do any of the 11 things listed below. If it can't, it sucks.
1: Can I record from HBO, etc?
2: Can I record from PPV movies?
3: Can I record from ABC/etc?
4: Can I record my shows to a DVD?
5: Can I play it back at my friends/relatives house?
6: Will it play back on any DVD player I own? (i.e. the bedroom, kids room, etc?)
7: Can I network it? Transfer to my PC?
8: Can I remove/skip commercials?
9: Can I expand the storage using my own hardware?
10: Will it record and playback in TRUE HD, or just degraded?
11: Will it work with my existing HDTV? (composite out?)
