Comments about Linksys Linksys Media Center Extender with DVD - 1 x RJ-45 10/100Base-TX USB, 1 x - Wi-Fi:

The media center extender literally extends the Vista media center to the HDTV in another room. It works almost as expected. The only things that comes up slightly short is the picture quality and an occasional 'Network Issues'. The picture quality only shows up in very fine details. For example a small graphic with diagonals shows a little jagged compared to my HDTV tuner. I'm not sure what's going on with the 'Network Issues' yet as it is connected on a wired LAN and the message appears with nothing else on the LAN but my media computer and the extender.

It is really cool being able to pause live HDTV, record and playback HDTV. Just like tivo only free.

I plan on getting a second HDTV tuner card for my computer so I can watch one channel while recording on another. This will also let me record two channels at the same time. As is, I can watch a recorded program while recording.
