Ford Prefect Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 ...this new device is on a promo for pre-orders, here: http://www.xtreamer.net/ultra/ I do not know if this is a real deal, since shipping, taxes and VAT may additionally apply...but it definitely looks tempting at a first glance. They seem to throw in some more extras for pre-orders before April 30th. The site seems to be "knowing" from where your're browsing in...so in my case I am advertised with pricing in EUR. ..would be interesting to see the pricing for USD (maybe around USD360 according to exchange rates). ..what do you think?

dyrewolfe Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Price: $350.07 Weight: 3.00 KGS Shipping: $49.21 (Fixed shipping cost) Do you see the currency converter on the right hand side? That should allow you switch to USD. The pricing seems to default to Euros as I'm in the US and got the Euro pricing same as you. Anyhow, looks like a very nice streamer/HTPC. $400 is a little more than I'd care to drop on one though since I'd only use XBMC and I think it'd be overkill just for that. Also, what's the HDD support? I'm assuming it supports an internal drive but I can't find any specs on it. Quote Link to comment
