Actually, its mostly the screen that I like... I dream of being able  
to check the weather and start MythMusic without turning on my TV.  
It'd be cool to have it display pictures from the photo library when  
it was idle too. Also, the screen can be turned off - and it probably  
wouldn't be too difficult to do that in software as well -- such as  
when starting a movie.

It's pretty big, but I'm looking for an upgrade from my current  
Pundit setup anyway. Need more HDs... and tuners...  ;-)
