Re: Pretty cool device

Some of the pricing leaves something to be desired... I pay around $16 a month to get what I want to watch... It is going to be pretty awesome when they start offering MovieLink movies I think... They have already started delivering HD content, I wonder if they are going to do movies in HD..

Meh. It's horrible. $10/month for a couple of shows, then they want $1 to $8 per show/movie for anything actually worth watching. I'll pass.

I wonder how it will work with the premium content...
Akimbo has a lot to offer even without the premium content. They have everything from the cartoon network to HereTV (LGBT programming) to BBC to cooking shows to Naked News (and other adult programming). Granted some of that stuff requires either a subscription or a fee. It's still pretty awesome and the fact that they are teaming up with AT&T is probably a great thing for the company.

Dual tuner HD/DD DVR, DVD recorder pretty cool.

In looking at the specs though, it says download and play...I guess it doesn't stream the WM9 or MPEG2? Also it's IPTV OR satellite? This according to their descpription on the device page.

said by 2wire :
Service combines satellite TV programming with Internet-based video on demand, music on demand, Caller ID, digital photo-sharing and remote access...
From this PR I guess they'll have a separate DN sat receiver and then this box for VOD.
