Re: Hard Drive Deals

Not an hard drive but can be used with a hard drive...

A friend at work uses one of these and recommends it over the WD Live TV box I have and love...

Pivos Aios Network Media Player $89 but $59 after mail-in rebate....
it has a 3.5 inch internal bay for a hard drive...

Hey Vue, those media players look real nice. While WD has been sitting on their hiny, this company has put in GIG network and other nice touches. It has my interest!!

I'm getting one, and yeah WD has been sitting on their hands.. They better have a new model coming out for Christmas, or at 60 bucks, this thing is going to destroy their sales.

I have read some reviews, and they aren't nice,but considering I'm not paying for it,I'll give it whirl.

No, I didn't. Honest... I ran out of gas. I... I had a flat tire. I didn't have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from out of town. Someone stole my car. There was an earthquake.......

After you've had it for awhile you'll have to do a review of the device for us....

Hmmm, everything Ive read says its decent. Most negatives were on the initial remote it came with. Only boxee has a decent remote but at least the pivos unit has a web browser thats friendly or so it seems.

I read a review over at HardOCP, that it had plenty of issues but that was a year ago.

Maybe that explains the low price?

Do these receive the stream from your pc through your router or are
these an internet device themselves?

I should be able to access my network shares and play content that way. The WDTV I have now is 100mb connection and even when I'm downloading Linux distros at 28mb I have no problems.

With Gbe I should be laughing.

Well Computer Canada has it on for $88 and free shipping vice NCIX at $89 and $10 express shipping. What cheeses me off is that Memory Express has none instock becuase they would match and beat it for $85 plus the free shipping. All of them have the $30 mail in rebate ontop.
