Really a disappointment, 720p output? *YAWN*
My 3 year old EyeHome does 1080i.
Still don't know why it has a hard drive.
Maybe holds the preprocesed data that streams from the server.

I am going to reserve my final observations until I get real specs.

Whew! Good thing it is only 720p, otherwise they would have just made all of the iMacs obsolete because you could use your 1080 TV as your display.

HUH?!?!
Computer Displays look like crap on television.
Also, it does not display the computers interface, it displays media content on your computer.

That might have been true 10 years ago. There is this wild new invention called DVI. 1080p should look the same on a 20" at two feet as a 50" at five feet or you are doing something wrong.

apparently one can type opt-shift-k and get an Apple logo, but that don't mean it shows up in the forum

Hard drive is for synching with a (single) computer, much like an iPod.

It isn't 1080i native it scales to 1080 from it's native 480, besides it can't handle HD files anyway, 480 is the best it can handle.
