Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"We need a digital camera that can be switched on and fire off that first shot fast. It's not a commonly tracked statistic on any review site, and nobody seems to have this information for every camera. We were hoping other readers could inform us as to what small digital cameras can fire off their first pics in under a second (ideally under half a second). It needs to be small, but mostly, just really quick in operation. Thanks!"
"The one thing this won't change is the fact that the content creators already sold the rights to these shows on the TV, which of course means Hulu won't be able to stop going out of its way to block things like Boxee and the PS3 -- still kind of shocked that PlayOn isn't effected."
What?

What I think they're saying is that now Hulu can't pull an old school YouTube and play dumb while people watch copyrighted content.
New school YouTube sucks. Handing out bans over foolishness. SMH

I got a grease monkey script that got rid of all the terrible new engadget layout stuff. The only thing it didn't remove is the just moronic logo at the bottom left that half covers the "previous stories" button so you always accidentally go to the home page over and over like an idiot.

Playon essentially manages to get content to home media streamers by running a service on your PC that acts as your proxy to access the content...and then streaming the content from there to another media streamer in your house (transparently to anyone using the PC). Thus, it can stream anything that Windows can since it uses all of the various CODECs (including those required for DRMed content) on the PC.
I bought it...and it worked...sort of. Fast forward was glacially slow (I have a gigabit network)...and the connection between my Playon "server" and my Popcorn Hour media streamer was a coin toss at best. Playon swears it is an issue with the Popcorn Hour...and they are probably right, but I stopped caring.
I now have a $300 Acer Atom 330 Ion-based nettop connected to my main TV and now we can watch everything - Hulu, YouTube, MLB.com, Netflix, whatever. If you can watch it on Windows, we can watch it on our TV. I am so over media streamers.
