I stopped by Morega to see if they would speak with us about any of their projects. They don't have a booth setup, however they do have a meeting room. They wouldn't comment on anything upcoming, other than saying "good things are coming". When would they be coming? "Soon". The meeting room did...

Stopped by the RIM booth to ask a few questions you guys had in the "what do you want us to cover" thread. There was no new information about the torch. It is GSM only at this point. No timeframe for a CDMA version. I got hands on the Playback. Pretty cool tablet type device. Very thin...

IOMega is offering three versions of their boxee video streaming device. The basic model has no internal storage and the usual boxee interface. Price quoted was $229. The two other models have built-in storage. 1TB is $299 and 2TB is $349. The storage is based on IOMega's NAS device, so it will...

Anyone else getting a "channel not available" for ESPN2? I have the Texas game on ABC, and supposedly ESPN2 has the reverse mirror. What gives?

I bought it a year ago to do some signal analysis. It was outside for maybe a week at most, been sitting in my basement ever since. Has all the parts and is pretty much in new condition. Asking $45 + actual shipping cost via whatever method you want me to send it with.

Anyone have their HBO channels available yet? Hopefully someone flips the switch soon. I have it set to record, hopefully they turn it on before my timer kicks off.

Neither of my 211s will output via HDMI to my Benq8700+ projector anymore. The last time they worked was monday night football on 11/5. I haven't used the projector since then and the only thing I can see different is that they upgraded the firmware rev. Both work fine with my Samsung 42" DLP...

Congrats to BC... BUT We lost that game, they did not win it. 14 points in 2 minutes SHOULD NOT HAPPEN. Oh well, time for drunken sleep. There probably goes a BCS game.

Using a 211, outputting via optical to a 5.1 receiver. Audio is several frames behind the video. I've done a soft and hard reset with no success. Anyone having problems with TNTHD or lipsync in general. Its pretty bad when you have visitors over and they point out "hey their lips arent...
