ViewSonic's WMA100 wireless media adapter and WMG80 and WMG120 wireless media gateways

WMA100

Yeah, the design is a bit on the bland side, but ViewSonic has a new wireless digital media adapter coming out with a bunch of nice features that almost might make us overlook the bland packaging. The WMA100 can stream both audio and video files (MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, MP3, un DRM'd AAC, WMA, MP3, and WAV), but has way more video output options than you'll find on the average digital media adapter, with connectors for DVI, VGA, composite-video, component-video, and S-video. They also have a pair of new wireless access points that come with some networked attached storage built right in so you don't have to fiddle with using a PC as a media server. The WMG80 (not surpringly) comes with 80GB of storage, while the WMG120 comes with 120GB. All three of these should be out before the end of the year.
