    Cool - say it in the name, but never heard anyone talk about it so wasn't sure if it was real or not. Thought maybe the site I saw it at was pulling a quick one.

    Breck, the Nfusion is a PVR but it's done through the LAN to your computer. I've only tried mine once and the playback was too jerky. Maybe I didn't set it up right but it's not because my computer is too slow. My CPU is a AMD 5600+ Dual Core so whatever the problem, it's not the computer speed, it might be a configuration problem, don't know. I guess I really haven't really tried the PVR function because I primarily use my DVD Recorder which has a PVR function using DVD Rams.

    Blank, it says 1.5 on it but when I read the specs online it says 2.0, so your guess is as good as mine.

    I wonder if it is a numbers game for charlie and bev. Lets say the cs 5k has 500k of units out there. So they try to do the most damage to the boxs that have sold the most in the past. They don;t seem to go after say, 6100cs as much and bins are faster from cs.

    Jenni, if this is any help, I couldn't be any happier right now with my Nfusion. Only been down once for 6-8 since I got it. The drawback is it's more expensive and you need a constant dedicated high speed internet connection. Wouldn't recommend it for dial-up.
