While there is no good news for Andy Whitfield at the moment, there have been some developments on the recasting of his role. Personally, the single season I spent watching Spartcacus truly created a connection for me with the character and the man behind him. I wish Andy nothing but the best. Once again, I have to say that these […]
Read moreA report like this is great considering the battle the digital fans used to have to make with record companies losing so much money. While Comcast complains about losing 500,000 subscribers, numbers like these have to be encouraging to the television content providers themselves to see that this is a legitimately viable business option…assuming they come up with something better […]

I know Mikinho is ecstatic to hear about this. Ever since the first images of this remote he and many others have been clammoring to get the remote alone to integrate with their own HTPC. For $40, it can be done…maybe. If it’s true, considering the Logitech Dinovo Mini runs at $90-100, this is a pretty sweet deal. The Boxee […]
Read moreSlow news day, so I figured this was as good a time as any to remind folks if you are planning on making a purchase you *may* want to wait until Black Friday (the day following Thanksgiving) for some special deals.

Read moreI’m sure these reviews will begin to trickle down as more reviewers (including us hopefully) get their hands on the awesome new Boxee Box. This one is strictly a tear down (as far down as you would imagine). Still fun to see IMO. The Boxee Box is a cubist deviation from the traditionally rectangular set-top box. The oddly-shaped […]

Read moreDon’t totally fall out of your seat here, as the Nielsen survey does take into account all TVs into this. Out of those users with an HDTV set, the number dips to 20% which is about what I’d expect. There’s still some channels and cable companies that haven’t migrated–we have a poor forum user who had to bare through The […]
Read moreMissingRemote.com co-founder Alan came out of the woodworks today and caught this funny clip from American Dad. Of course it’s not literally a mention of us, but it was fun to hear nonetheless! Enjoy. (We’ll see how long this video lasts online) By the way, this is as good a time as any to remind everyone to Like Us on […]
