I do like the idea of being able to view net movies on my Tv yes, also being able to browse the net might one day come in handy.... I was thinking about converting many of my films to AVI or what have you, so I have my library easily accessible, which I couldn't easily do with Apple TV, without getting N wireless at least I think a Mini would be the most flexible, and easier to pass off as a business expense! hmm, decisions decisions! j -- jon bennett t: +44 (0) 1225 341 039 w: http://www.jben.net/ iChat (AIM): jbendotnet Skype: jon-bennett
