Adamo by Dell

Connects your TV with the online media. Plus, no more burning DivX movies to a DVD to watch at home.

This is not the first on the block but the way the Seagate FreeAgent Theater+ handles media is unique and a welcome breeze. Also, I was happy to see an HDMI port, an optical interface for uplinking to your home theatre, a component output and an AV output, with a wired ethernet port to connect it with the internet. But it does not support any wireless connectivity. Its dock can interface with portable Seagate hard disks or
thumb drives on which you may have stored your movies. And except for its remote control, it is a beautiful machine. With support for almost every audio and video format, it can show movies or photographs without the need for new drivers. The icing on the cake is that its interface is like that of a brilliant DVD player. However, for 9,500 bucks you get only the unit, hard disks will cost you extra. I was able to use my Western Digital and Seagate hard disks easily as the USB connector interface on the dock matched the disk’s, but I
could not use Transcend or other hard disks in the dock. I had to use them with a cable.
