DVD Player as 802.11b Peripheral

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the now-thats-using-your-noodle dept.

sysadmn writes "Instead of building a PVR from a computer, why not let your DVD player access the computer you already have? That's the thinking behind Sonicblue's new Go-Video D2730. The just-announced DVD player will use an 802.11b (Wi-Fi) wireless network connection to access content on PCs, such as photos, music and videos. The player is aggressively priced at about $250 US and is due out in first quarter 2003. Full details are on CNET."

    Right there, after the text. I think that may be a correction.
