Roku Media Player HD1000

In my hunt for a Media Player, I talked with Bill about what Santa brought him. He got the new Roku HD1000 Media Center for use with his HDTV Plasma TV. This product is BEAUTIFUL. It seems like a must for people with HDTV's.


It does the following things, all in HD! (1080i)


  • Slideshow pictures

  • Play MP3's

  • Play Movies from the network

  • Read Pictures/Movies/Songs from CF or Smart Media (on front)

  • Access PC/Macintosh Network shares



It has special utilities for properly sizing your pictures to be displayed on HDTV so you get native resolution on the pictures without having it resize them. It also comes with several art packs that you can set classical music to, and have the art cycle through on a slide show.


In alot of ways I am hoping this is what I can ultimately do with the XBMP player. But only time will tell.
