Iomega Announces a Boxee Box–NAS but more Traditional
| Well, it looks like Boxee continues to be busy! Not resting on their accomplishments or focusing on negative press, it appears Boxee and Iomega have teamed up for a more traditional device for sale. Starting at $229 sans hard drive and up to $349 for a 2TB version, this one is a much lower profile design while offering identical hardware specs to the unique D-Link version. Interesting take on the remote if you notice–which design do you prefer? |
We love the idea behind a NAS device running Boxee. For people with media storage that’s running low, it’s a perfect place to expand their collections while giving them wireless / wired access to their existing collection on a TV. The Iomega product will come with 3 different configurations: Diskless, 1TB and 2TB. If you have large HD files that are just too much for your WiFi network to handle then having them stored locally is a perfect solution.
I definitely prefer the more
I definitely prefer the more traditional design of the box itself over the D-Link Boxee Box. Not sure about the remote though, it doesn’t have the same aesthic appeal. I’m looking forward to seeing it in person in a few days though!
see, i like the D-Link
see, i like the D-Link better. Not sure, just stands out. I know it makes stacking impossible, but the D-link is pretty small so I think i could tuck it away if I really wanted to…plus I think it’s cool 🙂
Damn yuppie
