I haven't used the new one but I have a pink pogoplug and one of the seagate ones. They are slow as molasses for large data transfers but do work OK for smaller files. As media servers they run great as long as you transcode to mp4/m4v BEFORE you copy movies to the device. If you have the pogoplug do the trancoding, it will become almost unusable until transcode finishes which could take hours to a day or more.
I'm planning on doing the hacked software http://archlinuxarm.org/ this weekend on one of them just to test it out. lopaka ________________________________ From: Anthony Q.

Seems like a cool way to have your own online storage without using anyone else's hardware (other than internet connections). I have fast up/down links at work, so I could put one of these there and have complete control over why share. It sounds like a cool thing. They are selling it to people who use the cloud for $60, while online it costs $100. http://pogoplug.com/devices
