The Entegrator comes bundled with the E-pad and offers a compact and simple to use home entertainment system which can be used to manage movies, music, television, gaming, digital photos, home movies and Internet content of all types. Since the system runs XP, SAVICON can stay up to date with all the upcoming codecs and technologies as soon as they become available for Windows. The E-Pad uses standard 802.11b, so you don’t need to run any wires to the main unit."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/savicon_entergrator.jpg" /> <br /><br />Sounds like an interesting concept, but the system runs from $9900 to $14,000, which seems obscenely expensive to me. 8O
