WDTV 2.0 LIVE ~ I got it

OK I got the WDTV LIVE not to be confused with the WDTV 1.0. Lets just say I am extremly happy with it. I put all my kid's DVDs on an externel harddrive and all they need to do now is use one remote and find to movie they want to watch. No more scratched up DVDs, and buying another DVD because it skips or wont play anymore.

What I really like about it is that it is now networked into my wireless network. I can pull media from my desktop where I have my large external harddrives hooked up. I can now hang out with my kids and watch movies without having to go to each room looking for DVDs. Also we look at our pictures and listen to music.

I have not tried the Internet radio options yet. I have watched many YouTube videos and it's pretty easy to operate. My 9 year old loves it almost as much as me. I give it 4 1/2 stars out of 5. Only thing I would say where they could inprove this is install a wireless card in it, but I quess that's the 3.0 Maybe.

Mvix Ultio (MX-800HD) vs Western Digital TV 2.0



I am looking to enhance my HD media center at home, which one should I pick? The Mvix MX-800HDhttp://www.mvixusa.com/ultio/1080p-high-definition-home-theater-pc.html $169








or the Western Digital WDTV 2.0 http://www.wdtvforums.com/ $149.




Man I am torn between the two. Now the WDTV's latest version offers networkability for $20 less than the Mvix but the Mvix has been out longer, tested and Proven. Let me know what you think, email me at scionearl@gmail.com
