Sony Vaio XL2 Digital Living System

Here's a followup on the Vaio XL2 Digital Living System media PC mentioned at Sony's press event yesterday -- the successor to the Vaio XL1 sports both NTSC and ATSC TV tuners. Like the XL1, the XL2 sports an HDMI video out, operation via wireless keyboard and remote, and an optional 200 CD/DVD changer for library management. Running Windows MCE 2005, the XL2 is harboring Intel Viiv inside. Price is unknown, but you can bet it ain't gonna be cheap.

once again Sony demonstrates its capability in designing. Wonder about the noise this machine generates?

Does anyone know if you can buy just the CD changer? I would love to be able to batch rip my CDs 200 at a time...

Will you be able to add and controll additional DVD/CD changers like with the Escient DVM-100 and DVM-300 managers. Does anyone know the release date.

Will this thing ship with or without rootkit?

Common Sony just give me the option to buy the Changer as a stand alone unit, Please, Pretty Please.
