Popcorn Hour A100

This morning my popcorn hour A100 arrived, that I bought on ebay for almost nothing.

I have high expectation of this player. A lot of positive review on the internet about it.
Pro:
-A lot of formats
-Network shares
-Hard disk can be build in.
-HD
-Easy to use
-USB
-Bittorrent client
Contra:
-Slow interface
-Slow network connections
-Very slow to transfer from the internal disk

After searching for some cables to connect it. I played with it.
It is looking nice. Good interface, not so slow. But Because my tv only has a DVI interface I needed a other way to have sound it cost me time to get sound. And even now it is not perfect yet, I will need to spend more time on this.

Later on I do some more testing.
