So very smart!!! <BR/><BR/>So I expect the 15" and 17" PBs to be even more astonishing: with a built-in iSight, Remote Control, and Front Row, but also an HD widescreen mode and more. It'll become an on-the-go media center.<BR/><BR/>And now I wait... This iMac makeover increases the probability that Apple will do makeovers for the PB and PM during this pre-Intel gap.

I've been keeping an eye on their stuff for a long time, but users of digital cable or satellite seem to be left completely out in the cold. EyeHome can't change channels on your cable/sat box. Add on IR hacks are reputed to be very unreliable. <BR/><BR/>Too bad. Seems like a great system except for that. It’s interesting that you love EyeHome so much.
