Thanks... I still dont get this fortune cookie thing.

From my posts last week - hopefully answers it:

The easter egg will let you access a network services menu and manually configure your ports instead of the receiver using UPnP with your router. The second thing, it adds a daily fortune to your menu, similar to those in fortune cookies. The first part being a good add-in that some may need, the swcond part is unnecessary, and hopefully didn't take long to code.

The network services would let you assign ports for the upcoming media-share software that will allow you to view programs on a computer. It is just starting beta-testing right now.

This way, you can configure ports if you do not use UPnP.
 
Just finsished downloading here too, I'm rebooting now. That explains why I havent gotten the fortune cookies yet.. I didnt download last weeks because I was asking questions to charlie, and wasnt home. :)
 
Well, not that Don had "no brick" - I'm in.

Really I was just watching a ball game first, but hey.
