Next up, courtesy of the fine folks at Phantom Entertainment is their very cool Phantom Lapboard. Our […]
Read moreThis is awesome news…would have been more awesome about 10 years ago before I built my MCE DVR…but I guess I still watch *some* commercials during sports. Either way, it’s a long time coming. Rep. Anna Eshoo’s (D-CA) bill will require commercials to be at the same decibel levels as programs during which they play. Once signed, the CALM Act […]
Read moreLots of podcasts to choose from, enjoy! The week that dare not speak its name is upon us. Twilight: Eclipse is easily the biggest release of the week but somehow I doubt you’ll see it at the top of the pile at the end of the show. With a total of five major releases, it was a busy week for […]
Read moreWhile there isn’t very much information just yet, Hauppauge looks to have remembered us HD-PVR users. This could very well be the followup to the HD-PVR we’ve all been waiting for. I, for one, would welcome an internal version and I would hope that they have worked out the all the kinks. I was also shocked to see […]

On the one hand, I think it’s great the community is stepping and making the AppleTV a more powerful device. But on the other, paying $20 for features that are already available in a lot […]
Read moreI’m always happy to see posts from Pete and value his opinion. This blog post is no exception–very informative and worth the read. We’ve been using Windows Media Center as our home’s main DVR for several years now. We have basic cable service, and over the past few months, my cable company has started to switch some of our channels […]
Read moreWow, this has really not been a good month for Windows Home Server followers all around. First the announcement that Drive Extender was kaput, and now word that the largest OEM of Home Server devices, HP, has discontinued their entire line and will no longer be producing. Yikes. This also means that there will not be any more software updates […]
Read moreNow here’s an interesting announcement. When it seems all the studios are keeping Netflix at arm’s length, this FilmDistrict studio is bringing them right in, actually bypassing traditional methods and going with Netflix after theater releases for streaming. Not the greatest movies I’ve heard of, but it’s a start. Under the deal, major motion pictures that traditionally would have been […]

Read moreAaron pointed out that Avatar 3D is currently exclusive to Panasonic owners and fetching a nice price on ebay, but unfortunately not available through regular channels yet. Who wants to guess if it will break the 3D Blu-ray sales records 🙂 Outside of that, pretty slow week. The Sorcerer’s Apprentice was entertaining, as was Going The Distance, believe it or […]
