eHomeUpgrade | New Details: PRISMIQ Media Player/Recorder - December 15, 2003

I may have to put this in the '04 home technology plan and add this to the mix as soon as it is available. I am very happy with Prismiq and this looks like a step in the right direction. Now it remains to be seen if I can get this or a hard drive based DVR (PVR) from Cablevision for iO and which one will be available first.

eHomeUpgrade | Review: Play@TV Network Media Adapter - December 9, 2003

Keeping an eye on this one. It's the first mention I heard of this product but the review linked here looks good. I may want one of these for the bedroom once I upgrade the TV and surround sound system for that room. And one for the kitchen, and.... ;-)

Long Island Business News Reports - Cablevision to offer digital-video recorders

Long Island Business News

Well, it is about time! I've been meaning to contact Cablevision and ask them about a DVR capable set top box as well as HDTV offerrings. So, I guess I have to just sit tight and wait for a few more "long" months. Hopefully, the cost won't be CableVision standard $$$. I still can't believe I can get the HDTV iO box at no additional cost - now I just need the HDTV set.

Gizmodo : Motorola's MPx220 Smartphone coming in February

Gizmodo : Motorola's MPx220 Smartphone coming in February

When AT&T first announced the MPx200, I gave it a look but decided it wasn't going to do it for me without Bluetooth (BT). Now this new MPx220 appears like it will add in BT, and the built in digital camera and EDGE support are just icing on the cake. I will be keeping a close watch on this one!
