Seems like a pretty decent piece of kit, no outrageous claims here -- oh, except for this line about the Live's new video search tool that can "locate videos on the entire worldwide web" by searching "more than hundred thousand websites." That sounds... ominous. Way to go, guys -- first you add MKV support, then you try to blackmail the entire world. We always knew this would happen.

Update: We just spoke with Netgear and learned a couple interesting tidbits. First, although remote bears a resemblance to the one used with the Western Digital WD TV HD, that's all -- the actual box itself is completely different hardware, and the remote has a totally different layout. Second, PlayOn will be offered at a 25 percent discount to DE Live buyers, making the whole thing seem like even more of a bargain.

The aptly-titled MyDigitalEntertainer's managed to get an early unit -- packaged and everything -- and has provided ample unboxing pictures and some hands-on impressions. It's love all around, with a faster interface, extended support, and a new buffer ability that makes it a lot smoother than its predecessors. The RSS feature is functional enough, but any video podcast streams you subscribe to should be great. YouTube HD support is an added plus, but we've got no word on CinemaNow and we're admittedly a bit bummed by no Netflix. Hit up the read link for the full preview.

Today, the company announced its new Digital Entertainer (EVA700), meda streamer that'll even take your snaps n' flicks on your computer across the house and display them on that flat screen hotness that anchors your living room. The EVA700 ($270) has a convenient USB port on the front and on the flip side is decked out with everything you'd expect: Ethernet, WiFi, RCA ports, S-Video, S/PDIF, a SCART jack (for you Euros in the house), and will play plethora of audio and video types, including XviD. Now, while this brushed metal bundle of joy does play 1080p (downcoverted), we'd still really like some HDMI love in the near future. Whaddyasay, Netgear, you want to take on that iTV, or what?
