DirecTV's HDPC-20 PC Box

[69Mustang]

Anybody know anything else about this? DTV to PC via USB and Ethernet. Sounds interesting. I hope they offer it.

The latest I have heard is that it is dependent on Windows development from Microsoft. Speculation is that it is in very quiet beta testing through Microsoft, and may not be released until we see the next version of Windows (which is speculated for Q3 2009 at the earliest).

That could of course change, but there has been very little info since CES in Janurary, when it was quasi-demo'd (we could see a protype interface, picture of the box, etc).
