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?
