    Think the world has enough media streamers? Hells no. There is definitely room for the AMEX DIGITAL Venic-V38HD with it’s 2TB storage. The trapezoidal media player does about everything. It streams all major file formats off a local network (including AVI’s, Moxi), plays media files off USB drives, has a DVD/CD player – that’s about it. The only thing missing is a Blu-ray drive really.

    We just wish we could get a peek at that user interface. That tends to be the sore spot on some of these media players. The hardware is solid and complete, but the user interface was developed at the last minute. Maybe someone can hack Boxee onto the player.
