There's no mention of pricing in the press release, so we're assuming it'll be a free download, and the plug-in should be available "today," although we're not currently seeing it."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/cgg-archos-12192007.jpg" /><br /><br />Very sweet. If Comcast considered functionality like this for use with their DVR's, I'd actually consider ponying up for their monthly fee.
