  • i've pricematched officeworks with other online offers before and they generally are quite happy about it. if theres a postage charge they add that onto their final price but seeing as this is free postage too should be an easy pricematch

    • Yes I agree. I have always matched online prices at OW, if pick is available in your city they would not add postage or if the postage is free. So in this case you should get it for $166 less 5 per cent.

      There is catch - OW needs to have it in stock and DSE needs to have stock. Usually a web print out with the date stamp is enough.

    • OW website terms and conditions for 5% off says they will honor items which are offered online by a competitor but the price will be inclusive of competitor's postage.

  • Isn't it better to buy XBox Elite for $198 and use it for game plus a media player? Enlighten me guys.

    • If you plan to use the Xbox as an extender it is terribly frustrating.

      On paper its brilliant, but its so freakin slow to navigate the menus. It struggles with 720P and forget about 1080P. The 360 doesn't encode DTS, so you are effed with DTS movies unless you don't mind 2 channel PCM.

      I hate how this has dropped it has made my decision harder as I was planning to buy an Acer revo and hook it up with XBMC. Now I don't know what to do

      • Mmm, i find it works really well. Menu navigation is just as fast as on the actual media center PC, and looks exactly the same as on the PC, down to the translucent menus over live video. Setting it up was an absolute breeze - it just worked right away after entering in the 8-digit number.

        I run it at 1080p and use the same IR microsoft media center remote as the media computer as the xbox has a built-in IR receiver. The media center pc is just a core 2 duo 1.8 with 2GB RAM, both hooked up via ethernet.

        I don't care much about surround from the xbox though - I don't need surround in the bedroom!

  • Price match OW much better :D Dick smith suck with price matching..

  • Yeh, Just got one price matched at OW this morning, $157, awesome deal

  • whats the playback like on this?

  • These things are seriously overpriced and should come down a lot in future, how much could it cost to make them?

    • obtaining the licensing to use some of the codecs isn't cheap

  • Shame it doesn't have RMVB support, which funnily enough only the WDTV Mini has.
