Does the eeePC actually function as a media center extender??? If so how? I've been looking for a solution to run an extender on my g/f's TV upstairs. Right now I have a full-blown Vista32 MC install on a pc under the TV, its ugly & loud. I'd love to piggy back one of these on the back of the TV out of the way if it actually ran the vista/winXP MCE extender software from my main HTPC box. Drive mapping & sharing ATM are a PITA. Why the heck Microsoft allows 3rd parties to build MC extenders into standalone hardware, but not allow actual windows users to run an Extender on another windows box is beyond me.
Following the commercial success (and technical disappointment) of the original Wildfire -- which featured a miserly 528MHz CPU and QVGA display -- HTC has returned with the Wildfire S.
