Boxee Box by D-Link "Awesome"
This review is from: Boxee
Box by D-Link
First off let me start out by saying that I have been waiting for the
boxee box to come out for awhile now. Having suffered through the ASUS
O!play i couldn't wait to get rid of it and use something that was much
more capable. Set
up was extremely easy I've read some reviews saying that
it was hard and they had to call customer support. Now i only set up
the wired connection so i don't know about the wireless setup, but for
the wired connection it consisted of about 3 steps and it was done. The internet worked, it found
the movies on my computer and played all of them with no problems.
One guy was pissed b/c he said that when he called customer support
they treated him like he didn't know anything. If you can't follow 3
simple steps then you got treated appropriately. Remote works great,
great distance, QWERTY keyboard is great on the back i haven't pushed
any buttons by accident. I have yet to have any problems playing any
format that i have on my
computer, AVI, MKV, ISO ect.
I usually don't write reviews but i felt compelled b/c of the negitive reviews that i have read that clearly came from people who don't own a boxee box but just want to trash talk for whatever reason.
If your looking for a great piece to add to your entertainment collection this is it. I gave it 4 stars b/c at this moment there is no netflix or a hulu app ( but hulu.com does work on it) but using the direction pad for the mouse sucks. Boxee's software will continue to grow and get better as more content moves online. My opinion is don't get sucked into the apple tv where when they decided to improve the software you'll have to buy a new box. Get a boxee box and enjoy as the platform evolves more and more without having to buy new hardware everytime something changes.
