Thought it was a pretty good deal. Although just got a PCH A110 myself. I might pick one of these up in future for my son.

My mate has one of these are they are Top quality! very tempted to buy one myself, anyone know when the new WDTV mini version comes out?

I'm interested in getting something like this to cut down on the number of DVD's I'm creating from tv programmes. Do you know if it has a DIVX codec in its firmware and, if it does, is it updateable?

Yes it does divx, and xvid and mkv etc... the only issues i've ever encountered with them, is some MKV files are classed as incompatible - a restart usually fixes it. Though i think i may have stumbled across another issue centring around DTS audio....

its out and 16 quid cheaper than bigger version, but not sure what is missing, looks like it only has component connection, so 1080i not p, but does it still play HD media?

I've got one and been using it for 12 months and its the bee's knees - although the WDTV Live has jsut come out which supports WIFI and has DTS Downmixing.

1080i only as you say and the one i had flatly refused to play MKV files.... which was a major issue for me!
