I have my main music system and home theatre on two completely different floors. The home theatre speaker system (5.1 surround) is decidedly inferior to my music listening system. It's certainly good enough, but for movies, I just really don't care that much. Our setup may not be the norm, but when we want to watch movies, we do just that...it's not our living room, reading spot, etc...it has to do with the layout of our home.
That said, if I could have a wireless device that'd stream HD movies, particularly from Netflix and Hulu, plus would function as a Squeeze music player device for the odd time when we're working down there and want to listen to some music.....that'd be awesome and well worth the $299 for me. I've been looking at the Roku HD/X, the BoxeeBox and, now, the Revue. We'll see what shakes out in the next few months when the Revue and BoxeeBox get released and reviewed. It should be fun and interesting! -- rgro Rick System information ------------------------ Duet SBC running 7.5.1 r9009, an SBR running firmware V 65.
