In my quest for a cheap appletv at NAB I stumbled on the UTV Bono, the
appletv slayer:
http://www.ubicod.com/sub02_1_utvbono.html
Long and short
- H264 and MPEG4 decode up to 720p
- Acts as a slingbox - encodes and/or streams to MPEG4 ASP
- ATSC tuner
- Plays media directly from windows shares on the network
- Onboard storage
- LAN port, HDMI, component, svideo, USB2, even a mini-usb port for a
digital camera...
The model without storage has a list price of $160 (or so their
marketing weenies told me).
I played with the box and the UI and responsiveness was really decent
(transparent overlays on the video, popup dialog boxes etc.).
Has anyone obtained one of these?
Cheers
Kon
