Not @ 1080p...sorry you grumpy old man.

Coops, was that aimed @ me? This was a blog entry. I did mention a Crimbo wish list but nothing about the fat man/red suit.

FWIW, the 2 people I got this setup for really like the idea but haven't played with all the device can do yet. Of course, yours truly needs to revisit them and help them set everything up. As with any tech gadgetry, let's not follow up to see if it's all working in 6 months, let's discuss WD's next version.

Side note: Also pick up a HDMI cable if you buy one of these for yourself or give it as a gift. That adds a $50+ to the total cost of all the gear.
