You need roughly 12-13 Mbps to stream HD content. Most dont have this yet. Its a good idea but its already in place in many different products.

Any PC is ready and able to do what this machine does. The fact that they dont offer a price scares me. It seems like it will be over priced for what it does, praying on the ignorant consumer that doesnt know that their home PC can do the same thing.

Take the Hannibal from http://TVease.net. It comes with free internet television also. Not only that but it has Tivo functions that allow you to pause and rewind and even record live cable television. It displays all the way up to 1080i, has 7.1 digital audio, and has a 18X speed DVD burner. You can take what you have downloaded from the internet and burn it to disk with your remote control, which is included. The Hannibal only costs 499. I think that this My TVpal will cost close to that and offer less than a quarter of the functions.

No thank you, for my money, I will stick with a Hannibal from TVease.net
