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.

This box uses the Sigma EM8551 chipset which is over 3 years old. It is buggy. It only supports divx encodes in very niche sets of configurations. If you want to play back anything but basic material (i.e. you want HD streaming) then avoid it.
