righto. I'm sure current tech will limit it until those USB drive are a bit more substantial, but who know what we'll have by then. Will be nice to stream all the snazzy footage you get from your pertty little Xacti :)

I have a Linksys DMA2100 media streamer, and it works really well. All hail 802.11n.

But regarding thisn thing...the idea of watching HD movies from a USB key is a little absurd. Considering that a single-layer BRD has a capacity of 25GB, and that anything at 1920x1080 screen res is going to clock in at 12-13GB per hour of video, the only thing you're going to be plugging into this thing is a portable hard drive. I guess you could use a USB key to watch small clips, but not full movies.
