We tried the Xtreamer Media Player a year ago here and we’re pretty impressed with it already. Now comes the Xtreamer Ultrawhich is not only a media player but an ultra compact PC as well.

To be formally unveiled next week at Cebit Germany, the Xtreamer Ultra is a sub-$150 media player and HTPC that’s quite affordable.

Technical inquiry naman guys, anu pong purpose ng HTPC kung halimbawa nakakaplay naman na ng directly ung TV from USB even 720 or 1080p MKV files (like Samsung 6-8 series or the like) mey upscaling po ba na ngyayari kung halimbawa DVD copies or 720p… I’m very curious lang po sa posibleng enhancement kung meron man otherwise baka kasi pag nagpurchase ako maging extension lang…

all i know is HDMI cables are better than USB pero in terms of 1080p flicks kaya ihandle ng USB fully ung bandwidth… so parang wala din

salamat in advance sa info…

Hmm.. it might be better just to build a Zacate based HTPC.

What would be the advantage of this over a NMT? It seems the both do the same thing. Can a HTPC stream video to two TV’s in the house. What do I need to connect to each TV?

You could put it on a large TV and use it to surf the Internet in HD. :D.

wow! That is nice…but are there any subtitute or much cheaper multimedia player around? Coz out LCD here has its own built in DivX player, yet it hasi its limitation…sometimes the HD movies I downloaded doesn’t have sound (not compatible).

What can you suggest?

@Miklos, no OS + x86 ISA = you can do what you want with it, including installion of a linux distro and XBMC. This made me realize that my first comment is pointless.
