DVD Player as 802.11b Peripheral
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."

my first post!
I dont have any movie dvds, but I have a couple of data dvds. One of my computers doesnt have a DVD rom, so to read dvds on it, I insert a dvd in to my laptop, SSH into it (over my home network) and copy files to my main computer.
Everyone has a secret... What's yours? Maybe it's a weird trivial fetish other people would find peculiar, even perverted. Look behind the closed doors of the boardrooms and bedrooms and observe all the libidinous shameful acts your doctor, neighbor, and boss may be hiding. It's the age of the high-speed Internet and a compamy called Talon has created some of the most sophisticated Cybersex software the world has ever see. Just pop on the 3-D glasses, log in, and immerse yourself in decadence. Have anonymous sex with anyone in the world, and if you don't like the way you look, change it. Choose a model off the Talon website and mask yourself. Be anyone you want to be, but be careful. There's something nasty out there, a disease that's spreading like wildfire. It stalks its host like a predator and kills so quickly that some are still smiling when they go down. How many more will die before the cause is discovered, turning what was once a naughty pleasurable pastime into a Deadly Perversion? Everyone has a secret...and those of you who say you don't probably have the most of all.
"CD: It seems that I might have fallen for a hoax. Doh!"
Right there, after the text. I think that may be a correction.
in soviet russia the dvd player uses YOU as a periphrial
I just visited theBubbler and it's one of the most interesting sites I've seen on the net in a long time. It's got a completely different take on the web than most site's I've seen. Very interesting.
