Reviews of the Hauppauge Wireless MediaMVP

CNET Review
The Good: The Hauppauge Wireless MediaMVP is an affordable network media device that streams audio, video, and image files from a networked PC and plays Internet radio. It includes built-in 802.11g wireless networking and is compatible with DivX video.
The Bad: Unlike many rival--albeit more expensive--network media devices, the Hauppauge Wireless MediaMVP doesn't have component video or HDMI jacks, it doesn't stream HD video, and it supports neither Rhapsody nor DRM-protected WMA files downloaded from Internet music stores. Nonprotected WMA files stream sluggishly, and wireless performance is spotty. File navigation is limited to folders instead of the artist, title, album, and genre options found on competing devices.
The Bottom Line: The Hauppauge Wireless MediaMVP falls short of competing wireless network media players, even when you consider its bargain price.
