Next time when you nerrate a video put your mouth right around the mic - we'll all enjoy it more.

Let me know when you record another audio track. One in which you don't actually fellate the mic, and I might be able to stand it long enough to watch the video.

maybe it's not as shiny as an iFawn, but the cool thing about open source systems is that they keep getting better. they don't create artificial barriers. i haven't used a Neuros yet but this looks very, very cool. I'd never buy an Apple or Microsoft device except with the intention to install open software. So yeah, i'm biased. my allegiance is to a concept, not to a company or an aesthetic. open source is a better process for making and using software.
If only there was a way to connect a simple HD tuner, it would be perfect. Neuros should join forces with the people who make the HDHomeRun (http://www.linux.com/articles/61518?tid=117) or make a simple pluggable usb tuner that works with the OSD, or linux in general.

It'd be like saying, "You might like bikes. Too bad all automobile manufacturers disagree with you."

Don't tell that to BMW, Honda, or Suzuki as they would be happy to sell you a motorcycle, a car, or both.

While I wish them luck, the Roku PhotoBridge tried this already. While it has numerous third-party developers, the product is no longer manufactured. It does have full HD support, and works quite well.
It would be great to get ToxTox on this device. Toxtox (toxtox.tv is a free and open source media browser based on mozilla, vlc and soon xmpp, rss-tv and bittorrent as well. With ToxTox you can watch all your favorite content using a standard interface and can easily write extensions to implement even more functionality. This could potentially be a great platform for TV 2.0 developments.

Did the Roku PhotoBridge play codecs other than MPEG2?

Among other references to analogies that render them meaningless; one might consider the non-point of Ferrari branding on Acer laptops or Jeep branded bikes and golf clubs. According to an extensive survey of practicing historians, George Bush is not only the worst president we've ever had, but they largely agreed he was the worst president imaginable. Despite the strong evidence, the public still can't agree on a proper incarceration for one of his social engineers, Ann Coulter, for saying that John Edwards should be killed by terrorists. If morality was the determining factor in our society, this might concern more people. Open source does hold the moral high ground in the software world, but is completely distinct from 'software houses' that seek a profit with a standard business model. Comparing the two models is not unlike comparing the functional similarities of a Jeep Wrangler and Jeep Golf clubs and contrasting their abilities off-road.
I for one applaud Neuros for the move, as they will undoubtedly be more successful with this strategy than they otherwise would have been. If competition is fierce from other similar gadgets, they can always start making motorcycles or whatever the slow fellow was talking about.

Steve (Jobs|Ballmer) will become president and I'll be watching youtube videos of Ron Paul on my Neuros.

Open-Source is an ideal I'm not sure is yet ready for prime time (if it ever would). Open source make things free & open for people to develop. Unfortunately it typically implies the lack control and standard, which is needed for the application to be user-friendly enough for the main stream. But it's great for techies and geeks to roam freely. I like open platforms and enjoy being able to play with them from time to time. But I think too often ppl are too passionate about open-source and try to make it into what it is not really meant to be (or at least not ready to be yet).
I'm hands are itching to get a hold of the Neuros OSD. But I am a bit concerned with the relative high price with uncommitted promises on its future potentials. $240 is a bit much for me to spend on something for what it "could" do one day...

Video players, a VNC Viewer, webcam browsers, and much more are available for the PhotoBridge:
