Apple is working furiously to get their ITV product into market early next year. However, this type of product is not a new idea. There have been a number of similar remote multimedia products since 2003, most based off the Syabas software stack. Geeks.com were very generous sending us over ADS' MXL-581 Media-Link Entertainment Receiver for a review, a Syabas-based device that's using the uCOS-II real-time kernel (introduction [.pdf]). Check inside for our review and many screenshots of the system.

I never said that I ran HD video on my TV via an HD cable. I used the cable it came with. You will have to purchase different cables in order to output from the other ports. I have an HDTV, but of course, normal video was output'ed from it, not an HD signal. The device is not able to decode HD video, but it is able to go high on resolution for other stuff.
Also, there are no input video ports. All video is coming via Ethernet or Wifi.
