The MediaSmart Receiver, which works with Microsoft Vista and XP PCs, has a stylish, high-gloss, piano-black finish. The product features advanced network connectivity, including 802.11a/b/g/n, three embedded antennae, and compatibility with other UPnP- and DLNA-compliant devices such as the HP MediaSmart Server. The device is also DivX certified, demonstrating interoperability across a range of digital devices.

Consumers can access and share content directly from any PC source by adding a Pocket Media Drive via a front-loading slot to enjoy their favorite music, photos and videos without turning on their PC.

Well Jason, good article but I think the Experts and the Electronic Industry is way behind. I've had a Buffalo Link Theater storing and streaming high quality Media all over my house over Ethernet four years or more. This HP Receiver is not available yet, and will be too expensive, bulky, and complicated for the average Home Theater User. I'm waiting for Buffalo to come out with a Blu-ray Link Theater.

One more thing, Wireless is a good technology for many applications, but not for streaming High Definition Video. If you want high quality Video, Wired is the only way to go. Don't keep looking for the Wireless Holy Grail.
