Prismiq Media Player I am a huge advocate of having a computer in the living room, serving as the hub of an entertainment center. The folks at Prismiq are thinking along the same lines.
"PRISMIQ revolutionizes your home with networked entertainment devices.
With the PRISMIQ MediaPlayer you can play MP3s and DVD-quality video files, surf the web and chat with friends, enjoy household news-on-demand — all from the comfort of your home entertainment center instead of from your computer monitor. All this for a fraction of the cost of competing, music-only or web-only systems. And there is no service fee!"
Although this device has won favorable reviews by such heavyweights as Cnet and TechTV, I do not advocate purchasing this product yet. At $249USD, I think it prudent to wait a few months to see what other competing products surface. This is, however, an encouraging entry into an emerging niche market.
