you better not think for one minute think it ready for prime time.
Some really key things here.
NO HD audio support via bitstream
NO BDJ (bluray java)
NO accurate PCM of audio it can pass (center channel is off half the time)
the list goes on…
Sent the poopbox back to amazon already. No where near ready to be released.
It does not provide access to YouTube… I think you guys need to do some research.
