HP are launching a new Media Center Extender products called the MediaSmart Connect. It is not just a Media Center Extender it is also a digital media adapter that can stream content from both Vista and XP. One thing I like is from the Connect UI content from multiple devices are pooled together so if you go in to videos you can see videos from your Media Center PC, Home Server and other devices such as laptops.
In this video I unbox the pre-production unit, I take a look at setup, Windows Media Center performance and the Connects own user interface which is very slick.
