I really want to get my hands on one of these. I don’t currently have a TV that is capable of wireless HDMI but to have an entire PC built into the keyboard, well if it is capable of handling video playback, that would be sweet!

First up, Engadget’s take on Logitech’s newest remote, the Harmony 1100 We also got some time with the Harmony 1100, but unfortunately we didn’t have a chance to see how well it interacted with the computer.

Now that the price has dropped on Sony’s BDP-S350 to $299, full-featured Blu-ray Disc players are coming into reach for the rest of us.

Read moreAlthough it’s a tower style case and not a desktop style, I like the looks of the front facade. With 4 HDD bays internal and 2 optical bays external and the ability to fit a full ATX board inside, this case should be able to house a very nice system.
