Netgear Digital Entertainer Elite

[maui917]

I've looked around on these forums, and haven't found anything about this product. It looks like a pretty robust set top box, the video bitrate's etc... pretty much blow the apple TV and 360 out of the water. This looks like it could be a great solution for full 1080p viewing. I'd love to find out what anyone thinks about getting XBMC to run on a device like this. The price point is still a bit high, but hopefully that would come down over time, or when the next version is released. I'd be really interested in something like this for around a $300 price point.

I love XBMC and some kind of full HD compatible set top box like this running XBMC would be my ideal setup (cheaper than full fledged HTPC).

Looks alot better than the previous Netgear attempts but I wouldnt hold your breath on XBMC support.... I would imagine the architecture is completely wrong ie not Intel/AMD x86.
