| 622198 | 2007-12-17 23:30:00 | On page 61 of the latest PC World, I saw one of these recommended in the Christmas wish list. airlinktek.manufacturer.globalsources.com I thought, that looks alright. So I bought one. From PB Tech in Penrose. It works almost as I expected. With the exception that I can't get the NDAS feature working, yet. I installed 200gb hdd in it; something large enough to hold lots of videos. At this stage I have to disconnect the device from the TV to transfer files onto the hdd by USB, but thats not too much of a problem. The device picks up my pc over the wireless network, and in this mode plays music & shows photos excellently. Videos are a bit choppy, hence installing the hdd. The computer can't see the device over the wireless network, but it pings OK, bit of figuring out to be done there. All-in-all, I'm pretty happy with it. |

| 622200 | 2007-12-17 23:53:00 | I'm confused. What does it do!? "PC-to-TV Converters with Wireless Connection" Video and audio from a PC sent wireless to a TV. The link given has all the specs. |
