Yeah, Happy Birthday JD
Now what Id like to see, is a system that is essentially an Xbox with DVD movie capability, Ultimate TV, a Sony Dream System with its five disc carousel, and a Microsoft TV Photo viewer *but a CD version*, all combined into one unit. Then add a pc card slot to accept WiFi pc cards *I dont like it built in because I want to make the choice between b, a, or g band WiFi*, a satellite radio receiver, Bluetooth with BT enabled speakers, Firewire, a wireless backlit keyboard, and a really nice remote, or software and hardware to run on a pocket pc to make it the remote. They could give it enough connectivity on the back like you find on the back of the Sony Dream Systems, and then package it into a really nice silver casing with a big glowing green X on the top and its name in a glowing green on the front. Now thats a system. One box that does it all... gaming, satellite radio and TV, home theatre, progressive scan DVD movies, CDx, mp3, and SACD music, photo CDs, web, email, IM, chat, DVR, wireless broadband, and HDTV. Whew! They could call it the X-treme Box.
