Remember this useful little set-top box from Netgear? Well, it’s available. That’s pretty much all there is to this post. It’s a nice little net-connected box that’ll stream all the usual stuff, upconvert whatever signal suits your fancy to 1080p, and it has a couple unique features that require you to buy more than one of the things.
Personally I’d go for a more readily tweakable platform like a cracked 360, but I’m more of a tech guy than say my parents, for whom this would probably be a great option.
