A.C. Ryan's Playon!HD Mini player is tiny, still pushes 1080p worth of pixels

Dec 16th 2009 9:08AM on Engadget

@satoru: Yes, I stream Hulu to my 360 via my pc now. But I'd rather have one box to handle it all instead of two.

It seems like I should just build a pc for the television, it will be the only way to get all of what I want in one box. But full-fledged pcs are never small, pretty, AND not-underpowered. Usually two of the three. Maybe the Boxee box will tie this together for me?

Give me all the specs of the non-mini, and the ability to play Hulu. I would buy that without hesitation.

When I read 'PlayOn' I thought Hulu, but it seems no.

USB 3.0 ExpressCard adapter promises more than it can deliver

This reminds me of the old usb 1.1 fast ethernet adapters. They advertised "100Mbps Fast Ethernet" utilizing a 12Mbps USB interface.

Still, half fast USB 3.0 is still alot faster than USB 2.0. And since there isn't any better way of adding it on to existing laptops, it's really your only option.

Any word on compatible Nuvi models? I hope it's a go for my 760. It does have bluetooth, afterall.

I like the cartooniness of their graphics. It makes it better for me to operate the thing at an arm's length. I've used TomTom and Mio, and I much prefer my Nuvi to them both.

Linus Torvalds gives Windows 7 a big thumbs up

I had to squint really hard to low rank that comment.

Buy this book: Chris Ziegler's 'Palm Pre for Dummies'!

The Pixi is a downgrade from the Pre. No wi-fi, smaller screen, slower cpu. The only thing in it's favor is that it's slightly thinner. But it's still taller than the Pre, since you can't slide its keyboard out of the way.

@Mitch: The Pre is supposed to be on Verizon in January or so.

SolarCity charging stations on Highway 101 give Tesla owners a little more time in the sun

That's why the Chevy Volt is so great. All the benefits of an electric, but with the "stop and fill'er up" of a gas when you need to make a long trip.

Now if it only had more battery capacity...

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I just switched to Sprint from Verizon about three months ago for the Pre. Then I went for the Hero about a week ago. Now, I miss my hardware keyboard and am thinking about switching to the Moment. I am still able to switch back to Verizon if I want and get the Droid when it arrives. Should I just trade up to the Moment when it comes out, see if I like it, and if not switch to the Droid? Or something else entirely? Help!"
