<div>I forget which one has this, but one of them has a built in

is only certain models, not all of them.</div>

<div>I dig this form factor and am planning on either velco or
zip tying one of these to the back of tv I recently mounted on
the wall. I believe the Asus one is the thinnest and am
leaning in that direction.</div>

) not much has been done to speed up the EPG Guide, and the
Channel List. When I try and bring up the EPG guide it can
take upwards of 10-15 seconds to display. Also
De-Interlacing support does not seem to be working in the
latest builds either.<br>

I just played with the new NUC from intel. I used a pretty
low end (celeron) but hey it is quite watchable, cheap and
totally quiet.<br>
