The UI on a v2 extender should be nearly the same as the IUI on Vista Media Center (hint: lots of transparency around the menus and horizontal strips rather than just vertical lists)]]>Sep 7th 2007 6:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/Sep 7th 2007 6:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/Sep 7th 2007 6:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/
I don't understand, is this supposed to replace my Xbox 360 as my media center extender? I guess I just don't understand the technology. ]]>Sep 7th 2007 7:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/Sep 7th 2007 8:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/
The media center extender is the box you've shown, but the Companion is just software unrelated to the box.]]>Sep 7th 2007 9:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/Sep 8th 2007 9:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/Sep 7th 2007 9:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/Sep 7th 2007 11:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/Sep 7th 2007 12:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/07/hands-on-with-niveus-media-center-extender/
There appears to be at least three different devices in the gallery.

One is a full blown Vista Media Center - the Niveus Rainier:

Another is only identifiable as different by the power cord location (the real extender?):

And the last is the Vantage TPT1210:
