This is one of the main reasons I went with a MacMini as my media connection to my TV... It is an actual computer and (more likely) won't get locked out of services like this.

That's a real bummer for people who just ponied up for a Popcorn Hour.

I'd love to play around with one of these but there is no way I would make that kind of monetary investment into a peripheral for a video game. Looks pretty sweet though.

How about we get rid of Times New Roman.

seriously... that's the way to sell smartphones!

@chad - It's not useless, but it's just not the most ideal. I currently use a $40 Mini DisplayPort + USB to HDMI adaptor that I got from Monoprice and it works just fine... But I totally agree they should have just stuck a mini HDMI port in instead, but for some reason apple fights against standards.

It's a bit of a pain, but it's nothing I would get rid of my MBP over.

That's the first I've ever heard that it was a hardware limitation... everything I've read said it was merely "disabled". Please site where you found that it is an actual hardware issue please.

and I'm thinking a 4 battery charger is a little anemic... my speedlight takes 5 batteries, so I'll be sitting through 2 charge cycles? Yah, no.

Break our hearts? Hardly. Maybe if my Wii was used for anything but bowling. The games largely suck for Wii and the novelty of the control scheme wears out pretty quick IMO.

@Fais: of course I read the post. How would I be able to make a fair assessment on my lack of interest in something if I didn't at least give it a sporting chance? :P

It's amazing how little I care about this product. Seriously.
